Getting to know Tom Bender

Hi, I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Pastor in Pennsylvania. I earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh. I have over 35 years of experience in the mental health field. Early in my career, I was trained as a family therapist, and more recently, over the past 10 years, I have focused on trauma treatment, becoming certified as an EMDR therapist and now an approved Consultant in EMDR.

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.
