Payment & Insurance

Insurance

I am currently in-network with:

• Anthem PPO

• Medicare

I am also in the process of credentialing with additional panels, including Optum, Blue Shield, and TRICARE.

If you’re unsure about your coverage, I’m happy to help you clarify your benefits before we begin.

Out-of-Network & Superbills

If I am not in-network with your plan, you may still be able to use out-of-network benefits.

I provide a monthly superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Many PPO plans reimburse a portion of session fees once a deductible has been met.

If you would like guidance in understanding this process, I’m glad to help.

Session Fees

Individual Therapy (50 minutes): $ 250

Payment is due at the time of service. I accept major credit cards and HSA/FSA cards.

A Thoughtful Approach to Care

My practice focuses on women navigating hormonal and life transitions — including pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, and menopause.

Some women prefer to use in-network coverage. Others choose out-of-network or private-pay options for greater flexibility or privacy. There is no “right” way — only what best supports your needs.

We can discuss your options during an initial consultation.

Psychotherapy sessions are often covered in part by PPO health insurance plans. Please call your insurance company to verify your specific coverage. The following are some questions to consider:

• Do I have mental/behavioral health insurance benefits?

• What is my deductible and has it been met?

• What is my copay for in-person and video session?

• How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?

• What is the coverage amount per therapy session for an out-of-network provider?

The decision to use your insurance or not rests on you. However, there are some important points that you need to know. Insurance companies require your mental health practitioner to provide a diagnosis in order for your sessions to be covered by insurance. This diagnosis will become part of your medical record. Insurance companies require your mental practitioner to maintain detailed notes of every session including your clinical assessment, treatment goals, and progress in therapy. The insurance company can request and obtain your records including notes in order to audit them. 

If you choose not to use your insurance and opt for a private pay option, your mental health practitioner will maintain minimal clinical notes that do not need to contain diagnosis that can only be released under a court order.
