INSURANCE AND PAYMENT

I am considered an Out of Network provider, which means that I do not have any formal agreements with insurance companies regarding the provision of services to their members.

While I do not accept insurance, many clients find that a substantial portion of their session fees are reimbursed by their insurance company. I would encourage you to contact your insurance company to gather more information about mental health coverage and out of network benefits for your specific insurance plan.

I provide my clients with the necessary information that they can submit to their insurance company, should they wish to seek reimbursement.

There are several reasons that I have elected not to participate in managed care plans. Not participating with such plans minimizes the amount of information about your mental health care that I am required to disclose. Additionally, insurance companies often influence the type and length of therapy provided. I believe that making this determination should be up to the client and clinician, not the insurance company.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Please contact me for more information.
