I do not take insurance, but can provide you with a superbill/receipt to submit to your insurance company.
As insurance companies differ in their policies, please verify your plan's mental health benefits for out-of-network mental health providers.
Please note that some clients choose to pay privately as insurance providers require a mental health diagnosis for your records and may limit your number of sessions.
A minimum of 24 hours notice is required for rescheduling or canceling an appointment, or the full fee will be charged for sessions missed or rescheduled without prior notification or change approval.
