Insurance
As a licensed psychotherapist, I am considered an out-of-network provider on most PPO insurance plans. Most clients are able to receive partial reimbursement from their insurance company for the cost of our sessions. Please see below for more information about how to seek reimbursement from your insurance company.
How to Seek Reimbursement
Call your insurance company and ask the following questions:
-
Will you reimburse for mental health service providers that are out of network?
-
Do I have a deductible to meet before you will reimburse?
-
Have I met any portion of that deductible yet?
-
What is the reimbursement rate?
Once you verify your benefits, you will be responsible for session fees when we meet, and then once a month, I will provide you with a superbill or receipt, which you can then submit to your insurance company. They will then mail you a check for your reimbursement amount. Some insurance companies have an online portal where you can upload a photo of your superbill, and it will be processed relatively quickly, usually within a few days; alternatively, you can mail it in. This monthly paperwork process should take you about 5 minutes.
Please reach out with any questions you have about this process. While I cannot answer any question about your specific insurance plan or coverage, I am happy to walk alongside you in getting reimbursed for services.
Getting Started
Therapy begins with connection. In our initial sessions, we’ll explore what’s bringing you to therapy, what you’re hoping for, and how we might work together in a way that feels respectful, empowering, and attuned to your needs. I am deeply committed to creating an environment where all aspects of your identity are honored and held with care.
