Frequently Asked Questions

  • My rates are $200 per session for individual therapy and $50 per session for group therapy. My rate is $200 per appointment for supervision or business consultation.

  • While I don't accept insurance directly, your insurance plan may have out-of-network benefits, which means that they will reimburse you for a portion of our session cost. Typically, out-of-network benefits cover 50-80% upfront on therapy sessions. During our intake process, I can help you verify if you have out-of-network benefits and how much your co-pay would be. I can also provide superbills (proof of payment) if you’d prefer to submit directly to your insurance company for reimbursement.

  • Most PPO plans offer out-of-network benefits and typically reimburse 50-80% of the cost of each session. To learn about your benefits, call the member services number on the back of your insurance card. Below are some questions to ask your insurance company:

  • I believe that all individuals deserve greater accessibility to mental health treatment. I have observed insurance create limitations to care based on diagnosis, session frequency, and methods of treatment. I have also unfortunately been affected by some common exploitative practices by health insurance companies and cannot participate in a system that prioritizes profit over the well-being of its members and the providers who care for them.
