Accepting BCBS, Aetna, and Cigna Insurance

INSURANCE


I am in-network with BlueCross & BlueShield, Aetna, and Cigna. 

All other plans are considered out-of-network. I will be happy to provide a superbill which you may send to your insurance carrier for possible reimbursement. 


Rates listed on this page are private-pay rates. Individuals utilizing in-network insurance benefits may have differing rates, coinsurance, or deductible amounts, depending upon my contracted agreement with each insurer. Check with your insurer if you have questions.


PRIVATE PAY


While many clients choose to use insurance benefits, private pay therapy offers several advantages that may be important to consider:

 

  • Greater privacy and confidentiality. Insurance companies often require the submission of personal health information, including a mental health diagnosis and treatment details. With private pay services, your information remains between you and your therapist, except where disclosure is required by law.
  • No diagnosis required. Insurance reimbursement typically requires a medically necessary mental health diagnosis. Private pay allows individuals and families to seek support, consultation, personal growth, life-transition counseling, parenting support, or preventive care without the need for a diagnosis.
  • Greater flexibility in treatment. Therapy is guided by your needs rather than insurance limitations. Together, we can determine the frequency, duration, and focus of services without restrictions imposed by a third-party payer.
  • A more personalized approach. Sessions can focus on a broader range of concerns, including caregiver support, parenting challenges, complex health journeys, relationship concerns, stress management, life transitions, and other issues that may not meet insurance criteria for coverage.
  • Access to additional supportive services. Private pay may allow for services such as consultation, care coordination, advocacy support, record review, extended sessions, or other individualized services that are often not covered by insurance plans.
  • Greater control over your care. Decisions about treatment are made collaboratively between you and your therapist, allowing for a more individualized and client-centered experience.
