Health Insurance

I do not formally contract with health insurance companies to serve on their panel of providers.  However, I frequently bill insurance companies as an out of network provider.  Essentially this means that if your insurance plan offers out of network benefits, you are able to receive my services at a fee that is less than my full fee, though somewhat higher than it would be if I were an in-network provider.  Such out of network benefits allow many insureds the flexibility to obtain services from their desired choice of providers.
 
In order to better understand your benefits for mental health in terms of covering my services, you may use my convenient form, What To Ask Insurance Companies Regarding Your Benefits, to help you navigate the myriad of details involved when speaking with insurance companies. 

Self–pay is another payment option. Some clients prefer to pay directly for treatment and not involve an insurance company in order to secure the highest level of privacy and confidentiality. Please note that if you choose to use your insurance benefits, I am required to give you a mental health diagnosis. If this issue is of any concern to you, paying out of pocket may be an option for you to consider.
