If you have insurance that is not listed above and are considered to be Out-of-Network, it may be possible for you to get a refund for my services. If you like, we can provide you a Superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Contact your insurance company and ask how much your reimbursement will be if you are Out-of-Network.

*An Important Note About Using Insurance*

When a client uses insurance to pay for services, your provider is required to give a Mental Health Diagnosis. Many clients may choose to pay for therapy out of pocket to avoid having a mandatory diagnostic label, and there are plenty of reasons why you may not want to have a diagnosis in your records as a pre-existing condition.

~Private Pay ~

Choosing private therapy offers several benefits: no mandatory diagnosis, protection of your medical privacy, and confidentiality of health records. You and your therapist decide the course of treatment without insurance company involvement, ensuring no limits on the number of visits and flexible payment options without high deductibles. You have the freedom to choose the professional that best suits your needs and control who knows you are in therapy.

~Late Cancellation and No-Show Policy ~

Scheduled appointments require a $175 payment (the full session fee) unless canceled with 24 hours’ notice, except for uncontrollable circumstances. Late cancellations and no-shows will result in the same fee, as insurance does not cover these. All appointments are subject to these fees, and you are responsible for scheduling and canceling your appointments.

~Good Faith Estimate~

Uninsured or self-pay patients can request a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges for mental health services. The Good Faith Estimate is not a contract between provider and client, and it does not obligate or require the client to obtain services from the provider. More information about a Good Faith Estimate will be in our Informed Consent for Treatment paperwork. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate or the dispute process, visit http://www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 985-3059.
