    Rates and Insurance

    I am out of network provider.  That means I do not bill your insurance directly but I will provide you with a superbill to submit to your insurance.

    My rate is $200 per 50 minutes session.  I do offer limited sliding scale or reduced fee appointments based on income.

    I accept cash, check, (FSA) Flexible Spending Account, (HSA) Health Saving Accounts and all major credit cards as forms of payment. I also accept payment directly on my site via this page.

    Depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for services to be covered in full or in part. Please contact your provider to verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services.

    Need help navigating health insurances or using out of network benefits?

    Take the following steps

    Call your insurance company to verify: The best way to be absolutely sure of your benefits is to call your insurance company member services line and ask:

    – What is my out of network deducible for outpatient mental health?

    – How much of my deductible has been met this year?

    – What is my out of network coinsurance for outpatient mental health?

    How do I submit claim forms for reimbursement?

    1. Ask you therapist for a superbill: When you are looking for a therapist, ask if they will be willing to submit claims to your insurance company for reimbursements. Typically, they will provide a document called a superbill that you send directly to your insurance company at the end of each month which will detail how many sessions you have had and the total fee.

    2. Receive reimbursement! You will need to pay your therapist their entire session fee at the time of service, but depending on your specific plan, your insurance company will mail you a check to reimburse a portion.

    Payment

    Payments are due at the time of service.

    Cancellation Policy

    If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. Otherwise, you may be charged for the full rate of the session.

    Good Faith Estimate

    You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.  Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.  You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency health care services, including psychotherapy services.  You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.  If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.  Make sure to save a copy of picture of your good faith estimate.  For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit
