No, I do not accept insurance at my counseling practice. This allows for greater flexibility and confidentiality in our sessions. Clients can pay directly for services, and I can provide a superbill that may be submitted to insurance companies for potential reimbursement, depending on your policy. If you have any questions about the payment process or fees, feel free to reach out.
I accept major credit and debit cards, HSA/FSA cards, checks, and cash. Payment is due at the time of your session. For FSA accounts, please verify coverage with your provider, as some FSAs may exclude mental health therapy.
