Rates & Insurance

Insurance

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.

We’d recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:

  • Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?
  • Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?
  • 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?

 

 

*We are not in network with Medicare at this time.* 

Sliding Scale Available

We offer a sliding scale for individuals who are experiencing financial hardship due to job loss, illness, lack of mental health coverage, or difficult life circumstances.  It is important to me that individuals do not hesitate to engage in therapy services due to their concern about ability to pay.  We are passionate about mental health care being available to everyone, so please do contact Us with your concerns and we will figure out a payment plan that works for you.

Private Pay/Payment

Some individuals choose to work with me using private pay for the following reasons:

  • Their insurance does not include mental health benefits
  • Their insurance has a high deductible
  • We do not take their insurance at this time
  • They do not want a diagnosis sent to their insurance company

Good Faith Estimate for Out of Network Services

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate”explaining how much your medical care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not insurance an estimate of the bill for medical
items and services.
• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total
expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes
related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and
hospital fees.
• Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate
in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item.
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 or call your mental health provider
