Typical Virginia pricing

Private supervised visitation providers in Virginia commonly charge $75 to $125 per hour, with Northern Virginia providers clustered at the top of that range and sometimes above it. Intake or setup fees of $100–$250 are standard. Therapeutic visitation with a licensed clinician costs substantially more. Court-connected and nonprofit programs exist in some jurisdictions but typically have waitlists, limited hours, and facility-only visits.

The fees that don't make the ads

  • Report fees — $25–$50 per written report is common, and reports are the whole point
  • Monthly case management fees — $50–$150/month just to keep the file open
  • Mileage and travel charges — painful in a state where metro areas sprawl
  • Cancellation and rescheduling fees
  • Court preparation or records fees when your attorney needs the file

When comparing providers, get the complete fee schedule in writing and price a realistic month: two sessions, two reports, plus recurring fees.

TruVisit Virginia's pricing

  • $150 one-time intake — case setup, court order review, supervisor assignment
  • $65/hour for supervised visits and monitored exchanges, two-hour minimum
  • $10 per session report — first two each month included free
  • No monthly fees, mileage charges, or cancellation fees

A typical month of two 2-hour visits with reports: $260, all-in — the same in Fairfax as in Norfolk. The same month at $110/hour with $35 reports and a $75 case management fee: $585.

Who pays in Virginia?

The court order controls. Many orders assign supervision costs to the parent whose time is supervised; others split them, sometimes in proportion to income. If the order is silent, the parties must agree or return to court for an allocation. Resolving payment explicitly at the temporary hearing avoids the most common way supervision plans stall.

Keeping costs down

  • Match session length to the order — don't pay for four hours when the order calls for two
  • Use the included reports — with TruVisit, two visits a month means report costs of zero
  • Avoid no-shows and late cancellations, which waste session minimums with any provider
  • Where the order permits, virtual supervision reduces costs for deployed or long-distance parents — common in Virginia's military communities
