Barriers to therapy
If you’d like to use your out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. You can find more information on this process in the FAQ section.
I understand that therapy is an investment and cost can be a barrier - so I reserve a limited number of sliding scale openings to make therapy more accessible. Please feel free to reach out if you’d like to discuss current availability for these spots.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
I’m not in network with any insurance providers, however I’m often able to provide a superbill if you have out-of-network benefits through your insurance.
I suggest calling your insurance and asking:
Does my plan include any “out-of-network” coverage for mental health serviecs?
What is my annual deductible for mental health benefits? How much of my deductible has been met?
What is my co-insurance? (this is the percentage amount that your insurance company will reimburse you for each visit (after your out-of-network deductible is met).
Is there a limit on the number of sessions your plan will cover per year?
How do I submit claims for out-of-network therapy services?
If you determine you have out-of-network benefits, I would be happy to provide you with a monthly "superbill" (receipt), which you would then provide to your insurance. While you would still be responsible for paying for therapy services up front, your insurance will then be able to reimburse you on the back end.

If you’re unable to attend a session, please cancel at least 24 hours in advance to avoid being charged for the full session fee. I understand that life can be unpredictable and that unexpected situations arise, so if something comes up outside of your control, please don’t hesitate to reach out to discuss your circumstances.
