For those utilizing private pay, I offer super bills that you can turn in to your insurance for partial or full reimbursement if that is a feature of your insurance plan. I offer a sliding scale fee in specific cases and upon request (ex: for a low income graduate student). Please note, I am not a Blue Cross Blue Shield provider and am not taking BCBS clients. Rates for 50 Minute Sessions Individual Therapy - $185 Couples Therapy - $200 Surgery Evaluation - $100 No Surprises Act The “No Surprises Act” is a piece of legislation that states that clients have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” from their provider for the estimated cost of their services. You will receive this estimate once we begin working together. Scheduling Options I provide both in-person and virtual appointments. I am licensed to provide teletherapy for people in PsyPACT participating states, an updated map of which can be found at https://psypact.gov/mpage/psypactmap.
