Insurance
Session fees are private/direct-pay only at this time. Though we do not take insurance or bill directly, a receipt can be produced for clients to submit to their insurance company for possible reimbursement for out-of-network provider services. Please discuss this with us before or during your first session. For your actual out-of-pocket costs, reimbursment rate (if any), and complete coverage details, please check with your specific insurance company and health plan.
For more information, please discuss this with us before or during your first session to see if this is an appropriate situation for you and your relationship.
We offer sessions both in-person and via telehealth. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, as well as cold and flu season, clients can choose whatever setting is most comfortable for them. Clients can access their telehealth session from the comfort and convenience of their home via a secure, HIPAA-compliant link sent prior to the session and accessed through the client portal.
