Rate for 50 minute individual session: $175
Rate for 50 minute family/couples session: $200
My fee includes both the 50-minute session as well as the time I spend preparing for our work together. Preparing for sessions includes research, customizing goals and treatment plans, updating records and when helpful, coordinating with other providers.
I am not in-network with any insurance companies and do not bill insurance directly. With PPO plans, I am considered an out-of-network provider and depending on your specific health plan, you might be eligible for partial reimbursement. I am happy to provide you with a monthly invoice (Superbill) that you can submit to your insurer for possible reimbursement. It is best to contact your insurance provider prior to starting therapy to verify what may or may not be covered by your plan and whether you have a deductible to meet prior to any reimbursement being paid to you. Payment is expected in full at the end of each session.
I’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?
Payment
I accept cash, check and all major credit cards as forms of payment.
Cancellation Policy
If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. Otherwise, you will be charged for the full rate of the session.
