I waited 6 months and paid $225 for an 'intake interview' for a DBT program early in 2011...it would have been $150 but they charged for half a visit when the night before I ended up hospitalized with a panic attack and didn't give them 2 days notice on cancelling the appointment.

I never got far enough to know what the sessions would cost, but my experience left me thinking that radical acceptance was about learning to tolerate their billing.
