How frequent are the sessions?
In general, sessions occur once a week, and sometimes every other week. However, depending on your symptoms and and your needs the frequency of sessions may be adjusted. We usually meet for 50 minutes, but we may decide that 60 or 75 minutes may serve you best.
What is your fee?
It’s important that you and I are a good fit for each other. I offer a free initial consultation so that I have an idea of what you’re needing, and you have an idea of how I work. At that time we can discuss my fee. If during the initial consultation we decide that we are not a good fit for working together, I may be able to provide you with a referral to someone that might be a better fit.
Do you take insurance?
I do not participate in any insurance panels, and am considered an “out of network provider.” However, if you have a PPO insurance plan they may reimburse part of the fee that you have already paid. I will provide you with a Superbill (receipt) that you can use for reimbursement. Superbills are different than a receipt in that they include a medical diagnosis. Please be aware that if you submit claims for reimbursement from your insurance company, they may, at some point, request records of our therapy sessions.
You can check your benefits for an out of network provider in one of two ways
can contact your insurance company directly at the number on the back of your insurance card and ask:
Does my plan cover out of network providers?
What is the reimbursement rate for out of network providers?
Is there a deductible to be met before you start reimbursing?
How much of the deductible have I met already?
How do I submit a claim for reimbursement.
You can use Mentaya, Reimbursify, Thrizer, or Float. Through these websites, you can check your benefits, including deductibles and rates of reimbursement. You can also submit claims through them. I providing their information here as a resource for you. I do not work with or endorse any of these companies.
