Insurance
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, most psychotherapy services I provide are covered under major medical health plans. I do not participate on the panels of any insurance carriers nor do I accept direct reimbursement from insurance carriers and am considered an "out-of-network" provider. You are responsible for all fees at the end of each session. Most clients seek reimbursement from their insurance companies through their policy’s out-of-network benefits. Each insurance company differs in the percentage they will pay for an out of network provider, so please consult your membership specialist prior to our first meeting to understand your benefits. You will want to ask your insurance company about:

   - Coverage for "outpatient psychotherapy services"
   - The percentage of reimubursement for an "out of network provider" including any deductible amount

I am happy to provide you with a receipt, diagnostic code, specialty code, and any other paper work you may need to submit your claim.

Appointment & Fees
Appointment times are available on a flexible basis. The initial assessment for both individuals and couples is 80 minutes and the fee is $195.00. Regular sessions are 50 minutes in duration and the fee for this period is $135.00 for individuals and $170.00 for couples and families. Fees are collected at the time of service, at the end of a session. Cash, personal check, and credit cards (MasterCard, VISA) are the accepted forms of payment. A $30 fee will be charged for returned checks.  Although I do my best to strictly adhere to my schedule, in times of crises it may be necessary to extend a session.  In those rare cases, I will charge the additional time on a pro-rated basis.

Cancellation Policy
The time you schedule is held for you and 48 hours notice of cancellation is required to avoid being charged the regular session fee.
