OVERVIEW
50 minute session - $215
I set aside some sessions for sliding scale clients -- typically outside of peak evening hours. If you might need some cost accommodation feel free to reach out and we'll talk about it. If I am unable to help you, I am also happy to provide referrals to excellent clinicians or training centers who may be able to help provide lower fee therapy.
About Insurance
I am committed to helping make therapy more affordable where possible -- particularly for my individual clients on PPO plans. If that describes you, I'll submit paperwork on your behalf to your insurance carrier to help you potentially recover some of your out-of-pocket costs.
Many employers in tech, financial services, energy, biotech and other industries have PPO plans that reimburse at surprisingly high rates (e.g. 60-80% of session costs) once members hit their deductible, even for out-of-network therapists like me. This is a great perk — from which I benefited when I worked in corporate life — and I love pursuing payment for clients. You can read more about all of this in my Blog post on getting money back from your carrier for your out of network therapy.
I'm happy to discuss this further if you'd like in our initial consultation. These reimbursements can be a substantial benefit for many clients and might be available for you, too.
good faith estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under a new 2022 law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You can ask me, or any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
For questions or more information about the Good Faith Estimate program you can contact www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
HSA and FSA accounts
Therapy can also be paid for with pre-tax dollars from your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA). I am quite experienced in navigating these options and can talk through how they can help reduce your therapy cost.
PAYMENT
I accept payment by Venmo (preferred), credit card, Zelle and HSA/FSA cards. Most clients pay at the end of the session but if you would like to pay online please click on the link below and indicate the type of session for which you are submitting payment. If you would like to specify payment for a specific date or range of dates, or if the client name does not match the name on the card please indicate that information on the Notes section while in Checkout.
You can also use PayPal.
