No, I do not accept any insurance. Some people have very reasonable "out-of-network" coverage. If you would like to use your health insurance, please call your insurance provider and ask them about out-of-network benefits. I do not bill insurance, but I'm happy to provide you with a receipt for you to submit for possible reimbursement. Payment is due at the time of service via credit, debit, HSA, or FSA card.

Initial Consultation:

Great questions!

There are many unseen costs associated with psychotherapy practice. In addition to basic expenses like rent, utilities, office equipment and office supplies, our ongoing expenses include: licensure and certification renewal fees, required continuing education to maintain licensure, liability insurance, multiple types of consultation (legal, business, tax, clinical, and educational), tax payments, HIPAA compliant medical record systems, therapy specific supplies, and specialized advanced trainings to maintain the highest quality of care possible.

In addition to the expenses listed above (and that is not a comprehensive list), much of a therapist's time is unpaid. We spend time preparing for each session, reviewing your progress and needs, reflecting on how best to help you, obtaining consultation/training, and completing documentation. We conduct initial, free phone consultations with every potential client, many of whom do not go on to participate in paid services. And we take time for self-care, which is essential for any therapist who seeks to be fully present and engaged during psychotherapy or group sessions.

Insurance dictates how much a therapist gets paid for their time and what type and duration of treatment can be provided. Billing insurance requires additional unpaid time, including time spent justifying care or disputing erroneously unpaid claims. Many providers need to hire additional staff to manage insurance claims and authorizations, which adds another significant operating expense.
