**I participate in specific insurance panels; please reach out to learn more. In cases where I am not in-network, and you have out-of-network insurance benefits, I will provide you with a receipt or insurance form on a monthly basis.

FAQs

  • In some cases, you may be eligible to use out-of-network insurance benefits. You'll need to pay for each session in full at the time of your appointment. If applicable, I can provide a super bill each month that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

  • You can use the out-of-network reimbursement calculator below to estimate your costs. Typically, out-of-network benefits reimburse you for 60-80% of each session's cost. I'll provide monthly invoices, known as "super bills," (sent on the 1st of each month) with all the necessary information for your claims. Most insurance companies have a straightforward process. You'll upload your monthly super bill online, and they'll mail you a reimbursement check. It's a good idea to contact Member Services using the number on your health insurance card for specific details.

    Reimbursement Calculator

    • Reach out to your insurance company and inquire by asking the following questions:

    • What is my out-of-network deductible?

    • How much of my deductible has been met this year?

    • Do I need a referral from an in-network provider for out-of-network services?

    • What percentage of outpatient psychotherapy sessions are covered per session?

    • How much will I be reimbursed for a 45-minute psychotherapy session (CPT code: 90834)?

    • How much will I be reimbursed for a 55-minute psychotherapy session (CPT code: 90837)?

    • How do I submit claim forms for reimbursement?

    • How long does it take to receive reimbursement?

  • Yes, I reserve a limited number of sliding scale spots in my schedule. If my full fee is a financial challenge, please reach out. If I can't offer a sliding scale spot, I'll provide referrals to trusted clinicians in the area. If you prefer an in-network provider, check out www.psychologytoday.com for resources.

  • No, therapists can only work in states where they are licensed. I am licensed to work with residents of New York and Florida. You must reside in one of these states for us to work together.

  • Before scheduling a therapy session, we'll have a free 15-minute intro call.

    During this call:

    • We will discuss why you're seeking therapy

    • Share information about my therapy approach

    • Address any questions you may have regarding rates, insurance, availability, and more

    So we're a good fit. What's next?

    If we both agree that we're a good fit after the intro call, we'll schedule our first therapy appointment. I'll send you a few quick forms to complete before our first session and provide a link for our video calls.

  • As a Therapist, I have a collaborative, non-judgmental, and relatable approach that will make getting started a bit easier. During our first session or two, I'll ask you a bunch of questions to get a better picture of your life journey. I will listen to you without judgment. We will come up with goals together of what you hope to accomplish in therapy. During therapy you'll have an opportunity to vent, gain perspective and new insights, learn to challenge your thoughts, receive feedback, and develop and practice new coping skills. Sometimes therapy can be tough work, and sometimes it is fun and full of laughter. Either way, I am here to support you and will help you achieve the change and growth you are looking for.
