Payment
Payment for appointments is due at the time of service. Accepted methods of payment include check and credit card, including HSA.
Insurance
I am an out-of-network provider for all insurance companies, and do not accept Medicare and Medicaid patients. If your insurance pays for out-of-network providers, patients will be provided with a detailed receipt (Super Bill) to submit to their insurance provider for reimbursement (if your insurance reimburses for out-of-network providers), or for tax refunds. Regardless of your insurance company policy, you are responsible for payment at the time of service.
Fees
Fees depend on the frequency and length of our sessions. The fee for psychoanalysis (4-5 sessions a week) is negotiated at the end of the initial evaluation. The average cost for therapy sessions is $250, medication management is $350, and group psychotherapy is $100.
Cancellation
Please cancel appointments at least a week before the appointment.
Confidentiality
Information shared in psychotherapy and medication services are protected by confidentiality law. All medical and psychotherapy records are kept private in accordance to HIPAA regulations. I will only break confidentiality if I have concern for immediate danger to the patient or other individuals, as required by law.
Patient Rights
You are entitled to the highest quality of mental health care. Treatment and recovery are the result of a close collaboration between the patient and the therapist. There are boundaries and responsibilities that should be observed to ensure professional and ethical relationships. I am dedicated to addressing my patient’s questions and concerns.
