Frequently Asked Questions
How much does therapy cost?
I charge $250 per session. Intakes are $300. I raise my prices annually (if needed), to account for rising costs.
How long are sessions?
Cash sessions are 50-minutes by default. For insurance clients, session length is based on medical necessity and billed accordingly.
Which insurances do you take?
Currently, I accept Optum, Medica, and UHC.
What if you don’t take my insurance?
If I don’t take your insurance, you may still get reimbursed using your out-of-network benefits. I’ve partnered with Mentaya which, for a small fee, submits those claims for you. Use their widget to estimate your out-of-pocket cost.
Here are some questions to ask your insurer about out-of-network coverage.
What are my out-of-network benefits for outpatient mental health?
Is there a deductible to meet before coverage applies? If so, how much have I met?
Is there a limit to how many sessions are covered each year? If so, what is it?
What is the "allowed" amount that will be reimbursed for sessions? If so, what is the percentage of that you reimburse to me?
Do I need pre-authorization to begin?
Are telehealth sessions covered?
How frequently do we meet?
I believe in meeting no more or less than necessary. Meet too often, and we risk therapy losing its impact; meet too infrequently, and we disrupt its momentum. So, session frequency depends on what makes the most sense and will be a collaborative decision made between us.
What is your cancellation policy?
If you cancel with less than 24 hours notice, you are billed the full-session fee. See more about my cancellation policy, here.
Can we have a consult before I schedule my first appointment?
Of course! Above all, I want to ensure we're a good fit. I don’t want to waste your time or money. So if I don’t think I’m the right therapist for you, I’ll say so. Above all, I want to do work that impacts your life while feeling meaningful and effective, to me. That starts with finding the right match.
