Payment for sessions is expected at the end of each session. I do not bill directly to insurance, so although payment is out-of-pocket, it ensures maximum confidentiality and flexibility in treatment approach and length of treatment. I will provide you with the paperwork necessary (e.g., receipts, insurance codes) so that you can seek reimbursement directly from your insurance carrier. I am considered an out-of-network provider. Some questions for your insurance company:

Do I have behavioral health benefits?

Is there a deductible? How much is it and has it been met?
How many sessions per calendar year does my plan cover?
What is the covered amount per therapy session with a licensed mental health counselor?
Is approval required by my primary doctor?

If requested, I will gladly generate an invoice for you to file claims with your carrier.

What is your cancellation policy?

24 hours notice is required for cancelled or rescheduled appointments. Missed appointments are charged in full. Of course, emergencies and illness are considered.

What forms of payment do you accept?

I accept cash, checks, HSA debit cards, and credit cards (i.e. Visa, Mastercard, etc.)

What about confidentiality?

The relationship between therapist and client is protected by law and information cannot be disclosed without written consent. The only exceptions are if and when there is suspected child abuse/neglect or when the client threatens harm to self or others, in which case every effort is made to ensure the safety of those affected as required by law.
