I do take insurance. The following plans cover me:
Premera
Blue Cross
LifeWise
Anthem
First Choice Health
Kaiser (PPO)
Lyra
If you are covered by one of the listed insurance providers, we will determine your copay, if any. I take care of the rest. Easy!
First off, my rates:
Indavidual
$200 – initial psychological intake
$175 - ongoing therapy sessions, 53 minutes
Couple (I do not accept insurance for couples)
$250 - Initial couple intake, 90 minutes
$225 - Ongoing couple session, 90 minutes
I know this is the big question: how can I afford therapy?
Out-of-Network: If your insurance is not listed, it does not mean we cannot work together. We can use your out-of-network benefits. This means your insurance will reimburse you directly for your therapy sessions. The process goes like this: We hold a session, you pay me directly for the session, I complete and submit an out-of-network claim on your behalf, the insurance company processes the claim, and cuts you a check.
Now, I cannot guarantee that your insurance plan will provide reimbursement. It is your responsibility to reach out to your insurance provider to understand what your out-of-network benefit includes. In my experience, I have not had a client go unreimbursed for their sessions when their plan included an out-of-network benefit.
If you have any questions about navigating your insurance, please feel free to email me, and we can work on this together.
