Fees & Session Lengths

Payment

I accept payment in the form of a debit or credit card, a written check, or cash.  (For credit or debit card processing, a 3% bank fee charge will be assessed.). For your first appointment, I will ask for your credit card information to hold your appointment time.

Insurance Information

Please note that I am not an in-network provider for any insurance plan. Many of my patients do obtain reimbursement for out-of-network psychotherapy, which is an option if you currently have a PPO plan. Each month I provide a billing statement, which can be submitted to your insurance carrier for reimbursement. It is important to check with your health insurance to determine your benefits for out-of-network providers.  (Other options for payment include utilizing a Health Savings Account or Flexible Spending Account.) I accept credit, debit card payment, check or cash for payment.

Please feel free to talk with me about your insurance, and what might be possible —I feel it’s important to advocate for your mental health benefits. If you are seeking a provider that is ‘in-network’ with your insurance plan, please refer to the provider list of therapists within your network.
