Rates & Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! If you have out-of-network benefits I am happy to submit claims on your behalf (via a company called Thrizer) or provide you with a monthly superbill so you can coordinate with your insurance company directly.

Typically, insurance reimburses 60–80% of the session cost after your deductible.

You can:

1. Let me submit claims on your behalf via Thrizer (small fee ~$2). After you meet your deductible, reimbursement is sent via direct deposit.

2. Submit claims yourself using a monthly superbill I provide.

There are two ways to check your benefits:

1. Bring your insurance card to our intro call and I can for you during our call.

2. Call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask:

   • Do I have out-of-network outpatient mental health coverage?

   • Can I use these benefits for telehealth?

   • What is my out-of-network deductible?

   • How much of my deductible has been met this year?

   • Do I need a referral from an in-network provider?

   • What percentage of outpatient psychotherapy sessions are covered per session?

   • How much will I be reimbursed for a 45-minute psychotherapy session? (CPT code 90834)

   • How do I submit claim forms for reimbursement?

   • How long will it take to receive reimbursement?

Before scheduling, I offer a free 15-minute intro call. We’ll:

• Talk about why you’re seeking therapy

• Discuss my approach as a therapist

• Answer any questions you may have

• Review rates, insurance, and availability

So we’re a good fit — what’s next?

If we both decide to move forward:

• We’ll schedule your first therapy session

• I’ll send forms to complete beforehand

• I’ll provide the link for our first virtual session (assessment is always virtual, but we can start walk and talk sessions after assessment if you’re interested!)

I meet with the majority of my clients on a weekly basis. I ask that all new clients commit to meeting weekly, for at least the first six weeks. This will allow us to start off on a strong foot, so you can start seeing progress right away.

I may recommend that we increase or decrease the frequency of sessions to best meet your needs.
