Insurance
The majority of health insurance plans do not cover marital therapy even if they include behavioral health coverage. Furthermore, insurance companies require the therapist to submit a mental health diagnosis in order to reimburse for the session. I do not believe that a mental health diagnosis is always necessary and do not feel comfortable creating a diagnosis that I do not feel is clinically justified. Another concerning issue is that once that diagnosis is made it becomes part of an individual’s permanent medical record and sometimes that can be problematic for the client in the future. Finally, insurance companies dictate the number of sessions they will pay for and I believe that it is between the couple, or individual client, and myself as to how long therapy is going to last.
Payment
I accept cash, check and all major credit cards as forms of payment. I also accept payment directly on my site via this page.
Cancellation Policy
If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. Otherwise, you will be charged for the full rate of the session.
