Fees for sessions are always discussed before we agree to work together. I will offer you a free twenty minute consultation to see if you like my therapeutic style and would like to continue.  I accept private pay and several major insurance carriers: Blue Cross, Aetna, Tri-Care.

My fees are as follows:

Individuals:  $100/session

Couples:  $120/session

Should you decide to commit to multiple sessions, discounts will be available.  Sliding scale may also be offered in some cases.   

Your medical insurance may cover all or part of the cost of therapy.   

These are questions you may want to ask when contacting your insurance or managed care company:

1.  Am I covered for out-patient psychotherapy?

2.  What is my deductable?

3.  What is my co-pay?

4.  How many sessions am I allowed per year?

5.  How does parity (severity) diagnosis effect above?

6.  Do I need authorization for services? 

Keep in mind that insurance pays only if you have a diagnosis, which I will provide to your insurance company for you.  Therefore, some people may prefer to pay privately without accessing insurance benefits.  This option offers them the highest level of confidentiality and choice.  Should you decide to pay for sessions privately, you have the option to submit a bill to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.  Please let me know if you would like me to provide you with a monthly statement to send to your insurance company.
