Fees and Insurances

As an advocate in the mental health field, I try to provide as much assistance as I can to individuals in my community. While many people are interested in seeking out therapeutic services in today's climate, I understand that money can sometimes be a barrier.

I try to meet my clients where they are so I offer a limited number of sliding scale slots based on income. Because everyone's income differs, this will be something discussed during the initial intake. The scale will also be dependent on the type of services you are seeking. Please note that sliding scales are NOT always available.

Here are the current fees for all services:

Individual, $140/50 minutes

Family, $160/70 minutes

Group, $65/90 minutes (offered throughout year)

Limited sliding scale slots (not always available)

Superbills are receipts of your services that you can send to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement. I can send you the superbill concluding your session. Please allow 48 hours (excluding weekends). Make sure to contact your provider to learn more about your “out of network” benefits because the percentage of the reimbursement may differ based on numerous factors. If you are still interested in services, you can schedule a consultation, and we can discuss your options.

Using Your Out-of-Network Benefits

Did you know your insurance might still help cover therapy, even if I’m not in-network? Many plans include out-of-network (OON) benefits, which means you could get reimbursed for part of each session. Once your intake paperwork is completed, I can verify your benefits and let you know exactly what your cost per session would look like before we move forward. If you do have OON coverage, you may only be responsible for a copay or reduced rate instead of the full session fee. This is something that you will have to contact your insurance provider to learn more about.

At my practice, I accept both private pay and specific insurances (these are listed below). Private pay provides greater flexibility of the client’s treatment. Instead of focusing on meeting the sometimes unrealistic expectations of insurance companies, I would rather put that energy into meeting the needs of my clients.

However, in order to create some balance and continue to treat clients who may not be able to afford my private pay rates, I have now started accepting insurance. Unlike other professions, there are obstacles that counselors have to work through if we would like to practice in other states. There are different sets of rules for each state, as well as credentialing with insurance. When taking insurance, professionals are not allowed as much flexibility regarding the client’s treatment.

Florida: Aetna, Cigna, Oscar Health, Oxford, UHC/Optum, Private Pay
Colorado: Aetna, Anthem BCBS, Cigna, Oscar Health, Oxford UHC/Optum Private Pay
Oklahoma: Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, UHC/Optum, Private Pay
South Carolina: Private Pay only
