FAQs
How do I pay for sessions? We ask you to leave a credit card on file before you meet with your therapist. Your session fee will be charged prior to your appointment. Amex, Visa, Mastercard, HSA/FSA cards, Debit, Cash or Checks are all accepted.
Is there a charge for missed appointments? The time scheduled for your appointment is assigned to you and you alone. Occasionally you may need to miss or reschedule a session, but please be courteous with your communication and notify us at least 24 hours in advance. We uphold a 24-hour cancellation policy which means if you are late, cancel or miss an appointment, you will be responsible for paying the full fee of your session. Sessions booked within a 24 hour period are considered confirmed and the same policy is upheld.

Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:
Do I have mental health insurance benefits?
What is my deductible and has it been met?
How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
What is the coverage amount per therapy session?
Is approval required from my primary care physician
What is my deductible and co-pay/co-insurance?
Is the provider an "In-network" or "Out-of-network" provider?
Is pre-authorization required?
If we are not in-network with your insurance, please contact your insurance provider to learn their policies about Out-Of-Network providers. In many cases, many insurance companies will still reimburse you for a portion of the service. We can provide a super bill showing that you have paid for services and with that, you can submit a claim for reimbursement.
Benefits To Self-Paying For Therapy Instead Of Using Insurance:
There are several benefits to self-paying for therapy and several drawbacks to using insurance to pay for therapy. Here are a few reasons I advocate clients to self-pay for therapy:
1) Therapist must give you a medical diagnosis for insurance to pay for therapy;
2) Insurance company determines how long your treatment will be, not you and the therapist;
3) In some cases, insurance will ask for a report of your treatment, jeopardizing confidentiality;
4) Insurance chooses your therapist for you by limiting your choice of therapists to those in their network.
Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a 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.
