I see clients in person in NYC! Otherwise, I can see clients in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Florida virtually through a HIPAA compliant video platform. Note: Clients MUST be physically located in the above states at the time of the virtual session.

Individual therapy sessions are 50 minutes long and my group session is 75 minutes long. Rates vary based on individual or group sessions. Please schedule a free phone consultation for us to discuss fees based on what service you are looking for!

Like many specialty providers, I am an out-of-network therapist, which means I do not accept any insurance. However, most clients use their out-of-network benefits to receive reimbursement from their insurance. Insurance companies often reimburse a percentage of the therapist's fee, usually after you meet an out-of-network deductible. For example, after you meet a $1,000 deductible, your insurance may reimburse 50-80% of the session cost.
-
I will send you a superbill every month for you to submit directly to your insurance company, which can be done online. This superbill will include all of the information needed for your insurance provider to process the claim. Please call the number on the back of your insurance card to inquire about your eligibility for out-of-network benefits. Below are some questions to ask on this call:
Do I have out-of-network benefits for outpatient mental health therapy? Does this include teletherapy?
What is my out-of-network deductible for outpatient mental health services? How much of my deductible has been met already?
Once I meet my deductible, what percentage of the session fee will be covered? Is there a limit on how many sessions are covered per year? How do I submit the claims?
-
This depends on your needs! For our initial sessions, we will either meet weekly or every other week so that we can effectively establish rapport with each other and better move you toward the progress you wish to see. From there, we can determine what continued frequency will be best for your treatment and of course, your schedule. I am flexible and understanding of life changes and we can modify the frequency of our sessions as needed.

You will be charged in full for any appointment missed or canceled with less than 24 hours notice. I am happy to reschedule you for another session that same week if I have an opening.
