Getting to know Dr. Sanford Pederson

I hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and am licensed in Indiana as a Psychologist with a Health Service Provider in Psychology Endorsement. I've been doing psychotherapy for several decades. I work with a diverse group of men and women aged 18 and up. All gender identities and cultural identities are welcome. I am experienced and comfortable with anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, personality issues, cognitive difficulties, and substance abuse. My approach to therapy varies from client to client. I typically ask the client within the first one or two sessions what their goals for therapy are. These are always subject to change by the client. When you're ready to leave the stress and discomfort you are feeling behind, I'm prepared to help you. Schedule our first session and get you on the road to making the changes you want to see in your life.

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.
