Payment

“Therapy is an investment in yourself, your relationships and your future.” Ivan J. Miller

Fees My fees are comparable to other professionals in the Bay Area.

You will be expected to pay for each session at the time it is held and I will provide you with a monthly statement at the end of each month.

Insurance I am an out-of-net provider for all insurance companies. However, many insurance companies will partially or fully cover out-of-network mental health services, so call your insurance company to find out your specific benefits. You can also use a Flexible Spending Account, offered by many employers, to cover any amount that was not covered by your health plan. Below are questions you may want to ask:

What kind of benefits do I have for outpatient therapy for behavioral/mental health? How much does my insurance plan cover for an out-of-network therapy session? How many sessions per calendar year does my plan cover? What is my deductible, and how much of it has been met? What kind of referral do I need? Do I need one from my primary care physician? Do I need pre-authorization before beginning therapy? If so, how do I get it?

Note: Insurance companies require a medical diagnosis, which can become a part of your record.

If you have financial concerns, please discuss them with me as I might be able to offer you some sliding-scale slots.

Payment Types Currently I accept Zelle or Venmo (private).

Cancellation Policy I do not charge for sessions if you cancel more than 48 hours in advance.
