Fees & Access

Session Fee & Access

$200per 50-minute session

ROAM offers self-pay therapy for clients who are able to pay the standard session fee. Self-pay means paying directly for therapy rather than using insurance. ROAM does not currently take insurance.

ROAM's standard fee is $200 per 50-minute psychotherapy session with Hiromi "Romi" Ortega Roque, AM, LCSW (CA #126338), PMH‑C. Fees are paid to ROAM Therapy, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and help sustain clinical services, operations, and access-centered programming.

Therapy fees are payment for services and are not tax-deductible donations. Reduced-fee availability depends on current funding and program capacity, and fees are discussed clearly before intake.

Psychoeducation

Clear, product-neutral education about HIV/STIs, U=U, viral suppression, PrEP/PEP, testing, safer-sex practices, and prevention or treatment options to discuss with medical providers.

Counseling Support

Space to work through stigma, disclosure, consent, intimacy, medication-related stress, relationship dynamics, and the emotional weight that can come with sexual health decisions.

Our Approach

Care at ROAM is person-centered, trauma-informed, and paced to each person's goals. We welcome people of all identities, relationship structures, and lived experiences, with particular experience supporting LGBTQIA+ people and people navigating trauma, stigma, or barriers to care.

Our approach integrates consent, autonomy, and pleasure-centered healing. We believe exploring sexual wellbeing is a meaningful pathway toward embodiment, agency, and connection.

ROAM does not prescribe, select, or promote specific medications. Medical decisions remain between clients and their medical providers; therapy and counseling can support people in asking questions, reducing shame, and staying connected to care that aligns with their goals.
