Insurance
I do not accept insurance. However, I am happy to provide a super bill that you may submit to your insurance for reimbursment. Services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:

  • Do I have mental health insurance benefits?
  • What is my deductible and has it been met?
  • How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
  • What is the coverage amount per therapy session?
  • Is approval required from my primary care physician?

Good Faith Estimate
Under the No Surprises Act of 2022, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical or 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 bill for medical items and services. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or 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 or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.

Payment 
You are responsible for the fees for your therapy. Before your first session, you will be asked to securely provide a credit card, which will be automatically charged the evening of each session. If you require another means of payment, please ask your therapist during your consultation. 

Cancellation Policy 
Sessions are 50 to 60 minutes at a day(s) and time(s) we both agree upon. I have a 48 hour business-day cancellation policy which means that once an appointment is scheduled, if you cancel a session providing at least 48 hours notice, you will not be charged for your session. If you do not provide 48 hour business-day notice, you will be expected to pay for the session.

Schedule Online
Request a therapy appointment by calling me or emailing me. We will set up a 10 minute free phone consultation to determine if an initial intake will be scheduled.
