Getting to know Marie Vernal

Hello! My name is Marie! I am a LCSW therapist that focuses on trauma, PTSD and military. I was inspired to become a therapist after recognizing the lack of accessible mental health services among lower-income families and the many barriers that prevent individuals from receiving the support they need. I wanted to become a mental health professional who could provide culturally competent, compassionate, and affordable care to individuals and families from diverse backgrounds. My goal has always been to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel heard, understood, and respected. I believe everyone deserves access to quality mental health care, regardless of their income, background, or life circumstances.

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.
