Rates & Insurance

I view therapy as an investment in your future, one which I, in partnership with you, will work very hard to ensure it is a valuable experience for you and your family.

If I do not participate in-network with your insurance or you prefer to opt-out of using insurance, please contact me to discuss hourly rates.
Because I am out-of-network with most insurance plans, I am able to offer a Financial Hardship opportunity to provide increased access to quality mental health care at reduce price points. I base this off the current Federal Poverty Level. These spots are limited, please inquire.
Fees are subject to change and clients will be given ample notice if this occurs.

Insurance

Most people want to know: Can I use my insurance?

Participating Insurance Companies (In-Network):

TriCare
UMR

If you are a subscriber to these insurance plans, you will likely have mental health coverage. I recommend that you contact your insurance company to learn about your eligibility and benefits for “out patient mental health office visits”.

Telehealth: Most plans are currently covering telehealth services, however you should check with your specific plan about these details.

Out of Network:

I am “Out of Network” with all other insurance plans. What this means:

If you have out-of-network benefits you can check to see if my services will be reimbursed under your plan. You’ll want to ask: “What are my mental/behavioral health outpatient office visit benefits?”

For some insurance companies, such as BCBS and MVP, I can submit the claim electronically for you at no additional cost. Ask if I can do the same for your insurance company!

Alternatively, I can provide a “Superbill” with all the necessary information on it and you send it to your insurance company for reimbursement, usually accompanied by a brief form.

_______________________________________________

I have my Psychotherapy “R” Privilege, which is an LCSW who fulfills the requirements of the insurance law for supervised experience providing psychotherapy, is recognized in New York State as a reimbursable psychotherapist. The “R” privilege requires insurance carriers to provide reimbursement for psychotherapy services whenever a health insurance contract includes reimbursement of qualified psychologists and psychiatrists (http://www.op.nysed.gov/prof/sw/lcswprivilege.htm).

Payment

I accept cash, checks and most major credit cards. Payment is due at the time of the service. Please email [email protected] for more information or submit a request form for services. You will receive a Financial Informed Consent clearly outlining all costs so there are no surprises.

Cancellation Policy

If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. Otherwise, you will be charged a late cancellation/no show fee.

Any Other Questions

Please contact me for any additional questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you!
