Your Privacy
Your privacy is a top priority to me, and is assured by the law & ethics of my profession. I don't share information about who I see or what is discussed. My "HIPAA" privacy notice may be found here.
Confidentiality
All interactions with mental health professionals are private and confidential and will not be released without your written permission. You have the right to review your own records. For the vast majority of clients, no exceptions to confidentiality are made. However, the law requires therapists to make exceptions in certain circumstances such as reporting child abuse, or protecting human life.
Fees
Initial visits are billed at $170. For individual psychotherapy, my fee for a 30 minute session is $80, for 45 minutes is $120, and for 60 minutes is $150. A couple/family therapy session is 50 minutes and is $160. Group is $50 for 90 minutes. There is no charge for occasional brief telephone or email contacts. Sessions conducted by video or telephone are billed at my usual rate. Insurance began paying for telehealth sessions during the pandemic, and are expected to continue through 2022, but beyond that time their policies are "to be determined".
Insurance
I accept Medicare and Blue Cross Blue Shield. For plans for which I am out-of-network, I will provide the necessary information for you to file your own claim for reimbursement. If you have a Flexible Spending Account or Health Savings Account, you can use it for psychotherapy expenses.
Payment Arrangements
Fees are due and payable at each session, unless other arrangements have been made. I accept cash, check and credit cards.
