Frequently asked questions.

Do you take insurance?

I am impaneled with Cigna and bill them directly. I also work with Out of Network insurance options. If you have out of network benefits from a private insurance company that is not Cigna, I will provide paperwork, called a Superbill, for you to submit for reimbursement. This does not apply to Medicare. There is no reimbursement for my services as an “opt out” clinician.

What is your fee?

Individual Therapy is $155, Couples Therapy $175, Clinical Consultation $155 and Clinical Group Consultation $200.

What do “out of network benefits” mean?

Your insurance company either requires you to remain in network or they allow you to go out of network. If you have exclusively in network benefits, the insurance company will only pay for services when you see providers who are directly impaneled with your insurance company. If you have out of network benefits, your insurance company will cover a portion of the fees incurred by seeing a provider who is not impaneled with your insurance.

How do I know what kind of benefits I have and if I can get reimbursed?

On the back of your insurance card, there is a phone number for member services. Call that number and tell the representative that you want to see an “out of network behavioral health provider.” 1. Ask what your out of network benefits are. They may explain that you have none or they will outline your benefits. For example, you may have to meet a deductible before you can access the benefits or they might be available right away. 2. Inquire what amount or percentage is covered. 3. Question how to submit your paperwork or superbill for reimbursement. Clients tell me that submitting the paperwork to the insurance company is usually as simple as uploading the bill on a portal and that reimbursement is sent directly to them.
