I may be considered as an out of network provider some insurances. Clients will be charged the therapist’s current cash rate for such sessions ($165.00 per 50 min session). Payment is expected at the time services are rendered.
An invoice (called a Superbill) can be provided upon request if you would like to send it to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.
It's best if you reach out to your insurance company before we meet so that you are aware of your benefits.

Payment for services is due at time of session.
Good Faith Estimate (GFE):
​
Beginning January 1, 2022, if you’re uninsured or don’t plan to submit your claim to your health plan, health care providers and facilities must provide you with a “good faith estimate” of expected charges before you get an item or service. The good faith estimate isn’t a bill.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. It should include expected charges for the primary item or service you’re getting, and any other items or services provided as part of the same scheduled experience.
​
If you get the bill and the charges are at least $400 above the good faith estimate, you may be eligible to start a patient-provider dispute.

​
Note: A provider or facility can discuss the information included in the estimate over the phone or in person if you ask.
