Sessions & Fees
Each session is 50 minutes long, and typically occurs on a weekly basis. There are times when it is appropriate to meet more or less frequently based on the client’s current needs. The fee per session is $350 for individual sessions and $400 for couples sessions. I am able to offer lower fee services by referring you to one of the associate therapists in my practice who is working under my supervision.
Payment Options
I accept cash, personal checks, or credit cards. You will be expected to pay for each session at the time it is held.
Insurance
I accept PPO health insurance plans as an “out-of-network” provider. I will provide you with a Superbill at the end of each month which you will be able to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. The insurance company will then reimburse you directly. This means that you will be responsible for paying the full session fee at the time of each scheduled appointment. It is very helpful to check with your insurance company ahead of time to find out what your coverage is for therapy services with an out-of-network provider.
Questions To Ask Your Insurance Company About Therapy Services
- Does my insurance plan include mental health insurance benefits?
- What is my annual deductible, what is its start date, and has it been met yet?
- How many sessions does my health insurance cover per year?
Mental health services may also be covered by your HSA, Flex Plan, or Medical Savings Account.
24-Hour Cancellation Policy
I uphold a 24-hour cancellation policy. This means that clients must cancel or reschedule an appointment 24 hours in advance or they will be held responsible for paying the standard fee.
This policy does take into account unusual or unexpected circumstances that prevent a client from attending a scheduled session.
