Research has shown that online therapy produces a similar outcome to traditional in-person therapy for various mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, PTSD, and adjustment disorder, among others.

My fee is $225 for a 50-minute session. Sometimes it will be clinically (e.g. during a crisis) necessary to have longer therapy sessions at 90 mins in length. These sessions will be prorated and the fees will be discussed during initial appointments.

I know therapy can be expensive, so if it is not financially doable but you believe we would be a good fit, please contact me about my sliding scale spots.

During our first appointment, I would go over some important clinic policies including confidentiality, payments, etc.  I will answer any administrative questions. I will then start to get to know you and your concerns better, including some of your goals and expectations. Depending on your needs and time, I may also give you some tools to help manage some of your symptoms.  

I do not accept insurance and am considered an “out-of-network” provider.  However, I can provide you with a super bill.  Clients are encouraged to contact their insurance company prior to coming in to determine what their out of network benefits are. Your insurance company may provide you with a deductible that you must first meet. Depending on your plan and after the deductible is met, some insurance companies may reimburse for up to 50-80%. Clients may also be able to pay from an FSA or HSA accounts. 

Under the No Surprises Act (Section 2799B-6), health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. 

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. 

• Your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least one business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

• You can dispute the bill if you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate. 

• 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 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services or call 800-985-3059.

Please contact me to cancel or reschedule our appointment at a minimum of 24 hours before the start of our appointment.
