Insurance
In order to protect the confidentiality of my clients and provide the best therapeutic care possible I do not accept insurance at this time. Insurers require the release of your confidential records in order to cover your services. Additionally, although it is my goal to work as briefly as possible with my clients, many insurers pre-determine the length of therapy or specific number of sessions which may not effectively meet your needs and thus interfere with appropriate completion of therapeutic treatment. In many cases, insurance companies require re-authorization every few weeks, months or sometimes days in order to continue care. Finally, insurance companies require a mental health diagnosis which may or may not be a focus or even important to the issue for which you are seeking therapy services. However, if you do require services to be covered under insurance I will do my best to make a recommendation based on the providers listed on your insurance plan.
For those clients with a PPO insurance plan I can provide you with a Super-Bill which you can submit to your insurance in order to claim out-of-network benefits. This is usually a percentage of full bill amount. It is best to check with your insurance ahead of time to determine the out-of-network benefits are covered.
Rates
$200 per hour session. Sliding scale and reduced fees available.
Out-Of-Network Benefits for Therapy
You may also check to see if you have OON (Out of Network Benefits) using this OON Calculator. While I do not accept insurance, I work with Mentaya, a platform that helps clients get money back on out-of-network therapy sessions.
If you do have out-of-network benefits and you qualify, Mentaya can file claims on your behalf and handle the insurance paperwork to make sure you get reimbursed. They charge a 5% fee per claim and have helped people get thousands of dollars back per year. See below for more information.
Reduced Fees & Packages
Reduced Fees/Sliding scale fees are available based on need on a limited basis. In an effort to reduce treatment fees, I also offer several Cost Saving Therapy Packages. These packages are especially beneficial to clients who are committed to therapy and plan on continuing care throughout the duration of the treatment recommendations.
Payment
Cash, check and all major credit cards accepted for payment.
Cancellation Policy
If you do not show up for your scheduled therapy appointment, and you have not provided notification at least 48 hours in advance, you will be required to pay the full cost of the session.
