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.

From Day One, I felt at ease to discuss my challenges with behavioral health and dive into ways to approach solutions with a "Beginner's Mind". She guides you by helping you to refocus on daily wins.

She is an exceptional therapist and listens intently to identify key words that I may need to address. She hears things I say that I don't even hear and it provokes me to think deeper about myself. She is GREAT!!! I actually look forward to my sessions with her.
