Welcome! Thank you for reaching out and taking this first and important step toward your wellness goals.
Sessions are typically scheduled Monday thru Thursday. Though hours can vary, sessions are usually scheduled 8:30 am - 4:30 pm.
While insurance is not directly billed, detailed receipts (superbills) are provided so that clients can choose to submit to their insurance for potential reimbursement. Reimbursement is not guaranteed, although most clients do receive fee reimbursement.
Sessions will continue to be offered both in person and remotely. Many clients fine virtual sessions to be convenient and fit more readily into their busy lives. While, others prefer to attend sessions in person - there's something for everyone.
Why don't you take my insurance?
First and foremost, it's important to understand that insurance companies have their own rules and regulations when it comes to mental health coverage. They may limit the number of sessions you can have, require specific diagnoses to be made, or dictate the type of therapy that can be used. This can be challenging for therapists who want to provide the best possible care for their clients without being restricted by these requirements. Insurance companies are less interested in what treatment modalities, meeting frequencies, or extra collaboration is helpful to the client and more interested in what is most helpful for their wallet. Sometimes, what the insurance company wants to pay for just isn't what's in the best interest of you as the client.
In addition, the process of working with insurance companies can be time-consuming and bureaucratic. Therapists must fill out paperwork, make phone calls, and wait for reimbursement – all while balancing a busy caseload. This can take away from valuable time that could be spent with clients or on professional development.
Ultimately, I want to focus my time and energy on you, the client, and not haggling with insurance companies. Questions about this policy? Reach out and let me know.
