Fees and Insurance
Sessions are typically 45-55 minutes and the fee is $170-190, with some sliding scale spots available, based on financial need. Full payment by cash or check is due at the time of your appointment and you will be responsible for payment if canceled less than 24 hours in advance. Insurance does not cover missed sessions. I am in-network with UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Blue Shield, Lyra, and ComPsy. If you have any other PPO that covers therapy, a superbill can be provided for partial reimbursement. An invoice can also be requested for FSA reimbursement.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost..
Psychotherapy sessions are private and confidential. The law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist and information cannot be disclosed without written permission.
Exceptions include:
-Suspected child, dependent adult or elder abuse, which I am required by law to report to the appropriate authorities immediately.
-If a client threatens serious bodily harm to another person, I must notify the police and inform the intended victim.
-If a client intends to harm himself/herself/themself, I will make every effort to enlist their cooperation to ensure his/her/their safety. If they do not cooperate, I am legally required to take further measures.
