Do you take insurance? What is your fee?

At this time, I do not accept insurance payments for individual, group therapy, and psychological testing . There are many reasons behind this decision, but I’ll give you a few important reasons — Insurance companies often try to dictate how often clients are seen, the types of treatment they receive, and how many sessions clients “should” receive. Additionally, they often put significant limits on the number of hours that psychological testing often requires to thoroughly examine complex issues clients go through. They also tend be intrusive by demanding that therapists hand over documentation, give diagnoses that go in individuals’ medical records, and inundate therapists in so much paperwork that it gets in the way of therapists focusing on the client. These are big reasons I have chosen to not have MCP paneled with insurance companies.

Please note payment is expected at the time of service. I am happy to provide a “superbill,” which serves as a record of the services I have provided and the payment I have received. Oftentimes, clients are able to get part, or all, of this fee reimbursed by using their out-of-network benefits. If this is confusing to you, I am happy to provide an explanation of how to go about doing this.

I am a member of the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT), an interstate compact designed to facilitate the practice of telepsychology and the temporary in-person, face-to-face practice of psychology across state boundaries. Basically, this means that if you are a client living in one of these thirty-nine states - you can see me for therapy and other clinical services.
