Insurance

I do not accept insurance directly and have opted out of Medicare. However, many clients are able to receive partial reimbursement if they have out-of-network benefits for mental health services.

To support this, I offer two options:

  • Courtesy Billing: For some insurance companies, I can submit out-of-network claims electronically on your behalf. This means you pay for services directly, and I handle claim processing so you don’t have to. I have partnered with a company called Mentaya to facilitate this process. Use the benefits checker tool provided on this page to see if you qualify for reimbursement.

  • Superbills: I can provide monthly receipts (called "superbills") that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement.

Coverage for out-of-network therapy varies by insurer and plan. To find out what your plan offers, use the tool provided on this page or contact your insurance provider and ask:

  • Do I have out-of-network mental health benefits?

  • What is my deductible and how much of it has been met?

  • What percentage of each session is reimbursed?

  • Is there a limit on the number of sessions per year?

  • What is the usual or customary rate for CPT codes 90834 (individual therapy) and 90847 (couples therapy)?

They may also ask for the following:

  • My Tax ID/EIN: 33-266471

  • My NPI Number: 1710608005

  • Procedure Codes: 90834 for individual therapy, 90847 for couples therapy

If your plan doesn’t usually cover out-of-network services, you can request a "single case agreement" by explaining that you’re unable to find another provider with my experience and training in your area.

Please note that insurance reimbursement can take several weeks or longer to process. I’m not able to offer refunds or fee adjustments if a claim is denied.
