Session Fees

My fee is $150 for individual and couples sessions.
Sessions typically run 50–60 minutes, depending on clinical need and where we are in the work. I don’t believe in rushing the process, and I’ll always do my best to protect your time and space.

Extended sessions (up to 75 minutes) are available for trauma-focused work such as EMDR or Prolonged Exposure and are billed at $200.

Payment
Payment is due at the time of service. I accept credit cards, debit cards, and HSA/FSA cards.

Insurance
I am currently an in-network provider with Aetna, Cigna and United.. Please check Headway to confirm whether I can take your insurance.

If I am not in-network with your plan, I can bill your insurance directly, so you will be reimbursed or provide a superbill you may submit to your insurance company for out of network reimbursement. Many insurance plans have generous out of network reimbursement. Please see below for information regarding how to find out if your insurance plan covers out of network psychotherapy.

Please check with your insurance provider to confirm your out-of-network benefits.

Why Some Clients Choose Private Pay
Paying privately allows for greater flexibility and privacy in your care.
There’s no need for a formal diagnosis to begin treatment, and we aren’t limited by the number of sessions your insurance allows.
Instead, we can focus on the diagnosis—or framework—that best informs your care and helps guide meaningful change.
You have full control over the focus, pace, and duration of your therapy.

Consultation
I offer a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Out of Network Reimbursement:

Before you start therapy, you should contact your insurance company to confirm your out-of-network benefits. Plan for adequate time to speak with your insurance company.

Be sure to have your insurance card, along with the name, date of birth, address, phone number, and possibly social security number of the cardholder or person who is starting psychotherapy.

  • Questions to ask:

    • Do I have a mental or behavioral health policy with out-of-network benefits?

    • What are the requirements to use out-of-network benefits?

    • Is prior authorization required?

    • Is a referral required from my primary care physician?

    • Do I have an out-of-network deductible?

      • If yes:

        • What is my out-of-network deductible?

        • How much of my out-of-network deductible has been met?

        • What is the start date of the calendar year my out-of-network policy?

      • In addition, ask the representative if your policy covers  CPT codes 90791 (Intake), 90837 (53-60 minute sessions), my usual length of therapy), and 90834 (31-50 minute sessions). How much is the insurance company’s “usual and customary fee” and what percentage do they cover?
