I offer a free telephone consultation. In this conversation, we will get an initial feel for if we’d be a good fit. Feel free to ask whatever questions that come up for you in this conversation (of course your questions aren’t limited to this conversation). Therapists have a wide range of training and qualifications, therapeutic approaches, and personalities. I recommend meeting or speaking with a few different therapists before beginning this potentially life-changing work.

Currently, I only accept Cigna insurance and am an in-network provider.  It is your responsibility to contact Cigna to find out your co-pay and determine if you require pre-approval for mental health services provided by me.

For other insurance providers, upon request, I will provide a super-bill that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

Note: HMO’s will not reimburse for providers out of their network.  PPOs may only reimburse for specific providers and under specific circumstances, depending on your plan.  Many plans require pre-approval for coverage.  I recommend that you contact your insurance company to determine their coverage requirements before obtaining mental health services and anticipating reimbursement.

These are some questions you can ask your insurance provider about coverage for therapy:

• Do I have out-of-network benefits to see a mental health counselor?
• If so, what percentage do you cover?
• What is the deductible, and how much of the deductible have I met?
• What is my co-pay for a session if I see an out-of-network provider?
• How many sessions are covered, and in what time period?
• How do I access the form(s) needed to submit a request for reimbursement?

My fee for a standard 50-minute session is $150. For a 90-minute session, the fee is $225.
