Fees and Insurance

*Currently offering Telehealth sessions only. Please contact me via email or phone to discuss fees, services and submitting to insurance. 

What’s included? Along with the time I spend face-to-face with you, it includes additional clinical time to best care for you. This can include: Case Management in which I may take time to collaborate with your treatment team after approval from you- such as your primary care physician, psychiatrist, registered dietitian (specific to Eating Disorders),  former therapists and current therapist if applicable. Also this includes creating and modifying your treatment plan and additional documentation, such as creating Superbills, or writing letters when appropriate in support of your care. 

Cancelation fee – 48 hours prior to session time. Notification is required by email. Late cancelation (less than 48 hours) results in full fee. Rescheduling available 36+ hours prior to scheduled session. I will try my best to reschedule with you based on availability as I know life can be unpredictable. 

 *I do offer sliding scale for those experiencing financial hardship on a limited basis which would be based on total income of household. I am also considered an out-of-network provider which means I can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance and get reimbursed. Super bills are something I can provide monthly and retroactively if needed. You can also access your superbill at any time through the HIPPA compliant platform Simple Practice that I use for all documentation. .

It helps to ask your insurance a few things before starting therapy. 
Is there a deductible I must reach? Is there a limit to the number of sessions per year?
Typically individuals are able to be reimbursed a good amount either from meeting the deductible or immediately with a partial reimbursement.
Here are some tips to find out how:

It can be helpful to first look for your insurance “behavioral health services” contact number. Give them a call and ask about their coverage for “out-of-network provider”.  If you choose to use insurance in any way,  I will most likely need to put in a formal diagnosis, if you meet the criteria, on the superbill that I provide. 

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regards to fees and insurance. I am happy to explain further if needed.
