COST

A 50-minute session is $230 and is comparable to the rate charged by other mental health professionals in the area. I offer a limited number of reduced-fee spot to allow others with limited resources to access high-quality mental health care.

INSURANCE

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE

I do not contract with insurance companies. I am happy to provide you with a monthly statement, called a "superbill, to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. 

Here are some questions you can ask your insurance company for information regarding reimbursement:

  • What are my mental health insurance benefits?

  • Do you cover services for out-of-network providers?

  • How much of a deductible is there, if any, for seeing an out-of-network provider?

  • Are there a number of sessions per year covered by insurance?

  • What is the amount per therapy session that you will cover for an out-of-network provider?

  • How do I submit claims for reimbursement?

  • How long will it take to receive reimbursement once I submit a claim?

  • Are any diagnoses excluded from coverage? Which diagnoses?

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage, both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges. This includes the total expected costs for non-emergency services and items such as medical/mental health sessions, 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
