A note regarding insurance: My practice is not contracted/in-network with any insurance companies at this time. Please note that some insurance plans will reimburse the client for out-of-network services provided, when a Superbill is submitted, (which I can supply you with).

Appointments & Cancellations

If you need to cancel a session, please do so by text or email at least 24 hours in advance of the session. You will be responsible for 100% of the session fee if cancellation takes place less than 24 hours prior to the session start time, or if you do not attend (no-show).
 

If you are late to your session, your session duration will not be extended to accommodate lost time unless arranged in advance.
 

The standard meeting time for psychotherapy is 50-60 minutes, though I do offer 90 minute sessions as well. It is up to you, however, to determine the length of time of your sessions. Requests to change the session length need to be discussed with me in order for time to be scheduled in advance.

No Surprises Act

In compliance with the No Surprises Act that went into effect on January 1, 2022, all healthcare providers are required to notify clients of their Federal rights and protections against “surprise billing.”

This Act requires that providers notify clients of their federally protected rights to receive a notification when services are rendered by an out-of-network provider, if a client is uninsured, or if a client elects not to use their insurance.

Additionally, providers are required to provide clients with a Good Faith Estimate of the cost of services. It is difficult to determine the true length of treatment for mental health care, and each client has a right to decide how long they would like to participate in mental health care. Therefore, upon treatment initiation, I provide all clients with a fee schedule for typical services, and we will collaborate on a regular basis to determine how many sessions you need.

It is a Federal requirement that I have each client sign a form acknowledging the No Surprises Act to begin/resume treatment.
