Getting to know Alissa Cook
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who is certified in addiction treatment. I have been working in a community mental health center for the past 8 years. I have served a variety of populations including those suffering from pervasive mental illness, anxiety, and severe depression. For 3 years I was the therapist for Adult Drug Court in Nassau County, helping those previously incarcerated for drug use charges to overcome addiction and rebuild their lives within the community. I currently serve on the Crisis Response team for my agency which intervenes during mental health crisis and am the Clinical Team Leader for the Care Coordination Program which helps to identify people before a crisis occurs so they can be attached to all the resources they need. I am additionally working on my certification to provide services to First Responders.

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.
