Getting to know Marita Gallagher

Hello, my name is Marita, and I am a Pennsylvania Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Psychiatric Rehabilitation Specialist with more than 35 years of experience working in both the children's and adult mental health fields. I have practiced within the children's behavioral health system, providing services to children, adolescents, and their families in the home, school, and community. My practice also includes working with individuals and couples experiencing relationship issues, parenting challenges, and life cycle transitions. My educational background includes a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Mansfield University, a Master's in Community Counseling from Villanova University, and a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from La Salle University.

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.
