Payment

I believe that everyone should be able to attain and afford therapy

when it is wanted and/or needed, especially in today's world!

Therefore,

I provide Individual, Couples and Family Therapy sessions

both In-Person and via Telehealth

for the convenience of accommodating the scheduling needs of my clients

at reasonable and affordable Self-Pay Rates

that also reflect the unique care I provide with my knowledge and experience!

Reduced Rates are also available for those who qualify for a sliding scale fee

INSURANCES ACCEPTED:

Aetna, Cigna, Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield, Optum

(Call for more information on the specific Health Plans covered)

For those choosing not to utilize their insurance I am an

Out Of Network Provider for those who have Out of Network Benefits.

You can find out if you have Out of Network Benefits by simply calling your insurance company and asking...

they will explain what benefits you have and what information you need to provide them with to file a claim for reimbursement payment.

It's that easy!

I will provide you with a receipt/superbill for services including all necessary information required by your insurance company so that you are able to be reimbursed for services either in full or part depending on your insurance benefits or employee benefit plan.

It's a very simple process and together we can make it work!

Your health and happiness are worth it!

To help you choose which payment option is right for you, please consider the information below:

OPTION 1: SELF-PAY

-This option offers you greater confidentiality and freedom in health care choices.

-There are no limits to the length of treatment you need or desire

-You will not be required to have a mental health diagnosis and if you do choose to be diagnosed it will stay between you & your therapist only, giving you the freedom to share it with only those you choose

OPTION 2: INSURANCE

-Some degree of confidentiality is lost when using insurance for your services:

-Claims are processed by your insurance company utilizing your records, which can be passed through multiple hands within that company.

-They may request your records at any time, giving them access to confidential/private information about you and the things you discuss in private sessions.

-They may impose limits on the type and/or number of sessions you may have.

-You will be given a mental health diagnosis.

OPTION 3: OUT OF NETWORK

-Please read the above information on how utilizing insurance affects your services

-You may be reimbursed for all or only part of your services depending on your plan

-It is an easy process made easier when your therapist gives you the necessary information needed to file a claim

Whether you choose In-Person or Telehealth sessions,

I accept cash, check, as well as HSA, FSA and credit card payments through a smart phone application called IVY PAY that is HIPPA compliant in which I would send you a link/invoice for payment at time of session. For those utilizing insurance I also use secure HIPPA compliant credit card AutoPay billing so you don't have to worry about paying your copays at session time! Either way, no time is wasted on payment and more time is spent working on you!
