A standard 50-minute therapy session costs $150.
Insurance
I do not accept insurance and am considered an “Out-of-Network” provider. Although I don’t work directly with insurance, I can provide you with a “superbill” (itemized receipt of your therapy services) which you can submit to your insurance provider. Depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for you to be reimbursed in full or in part. Please contact your insurance provider to verify how your plan compensates you for Out-of-Network mental health services.
You may want to ask the following questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:
- Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?
- Does my plan cover Out-of-Network mental health providers?
- Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it? What happens once I meet my deductible?
- Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
- Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?
Payment
I accept cash, check, and all major credit cards as forms of payment.
Cancellation Policy
Your scheduled session is a commitment of my time, reserved especially for you. If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours in advance. Otherwise, you will be charged for the full rate of the session.
“Good Faith Estimate” Effective 1/1/2022
Under the new law, No Surprises Act (H.R. 133), health care providers (including Licensed Marriage & Family Therapists) must provide uninsured clients and self-pay clients an estimate of the total bill for psychotherapy services.
- You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected costs of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
- Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 day before your appointment. 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/statement that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill/statement.
- 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 OR call 877-267-2323.
