Payment and Fees:

The fee for therapy sessions is $100 per session. Payment in full is due at the time of the session. Telephone consultation is billed at the rate of $35 per 15 minutes. Out of office work will be billed at $135 per hour, including travel time. Routine calls fewer than 10 minutes and time spent scheduling appointments will not be billed to you. These services will be billed to you at the next session and payment will be required at that time.

Once you’ve made the decision to make some changes, choosing a therapist can be difficult. I offer a one-time 30 minute free consultation so you can make an informed decision about what is best for you

Insurance:

Many insurance plans cover outpatient mental health services. It is your responsibility to check with your insurance carrier for specific information regarding your coverage. It is helpful to know before we meet what your insurance coverage is and the amount of any co-payment. Co payments are due at the time of service. Please be aware that authorization for treatment by your insurance carrier does not insure payment to a provider. If your insurance carrier refuses payment for any reason, you are responsible for your bill.

If you plan to seek reimbursement from your insurance company, please be advised that most insurance companies require a statement of the type of services rendered and a diagnosis. In addition, some carriers require more detailed information such as progress reports or treatment summaries. Please sign an informed consent for release of information if you plan to seek reimbursement from your insurance carrier.
