Insurance
I am an in-network provider for
Aetna, BCBS (not HOME), Cigna, Medicare, TRICARE, UMR/UHC,

Many insurance plans reimburse a portion of the fee for out-of-network mental health services. To inquire about your mental health benefits, please call the telephone number on the back of your insurance ID card.
For services not covered by insurance or if you are utilizing out-of-network plans, I can provide you with a monthly statement that can be submitted to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

Payments are expected before or at the start of each session.
I will do what I can to help make therapy affordable for you. A sliding scale is offered based on individual cases. Please inquire, as you may be eligible.
