More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Goal setting and a plan of action including homework.

My primary care physician prescribed me medication for my anxiety, and I opted to pursue counseling instead. In 6 sessions, Dr. Carmona has helped me reduce my chronic anxiety significantly. On a scale of 0-10 on my sense of calm/lack of anxiety, I scored myself a 4 (moderately anxious) at the beginning and I'm feeling around a 9 (not anxious) now.

Great provider with an understanding of individual therapy. Gives helpful tools and feedback. Has a thick accent and can be difficult at times to understand, even better if you can speak Spanish.
