Do you accept insurance? 
No, I do not accept insurance. I am an out-of-network provider.  


​If you have out of network benefits, then I can work with that. The main difference is that you will pay me my full rate at the time of our session. After our session, I will provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance. 

I'm not sure if I have out-of-network benefits. Can you help with that? 
I sure can. First, let's start with scheduling a  20 min consultation call where we can discuss your needs. If after the consultation, we both feel we want to move forward, then I can try walk you through how you can speak with your insurance company to find out if you have out of network benefits. This is something you can also check on your own simply by calling the Member services phone number, which is usually located on the back of your insurance card. 

I don't have out-of-network benefits. Do you provide a sliding scale? 
Unfortunately, I do not provide a sliding scale. If you are looking for a provider that accepts your insurance then check out the following resources: your insurance website for a list of participating providers and the following directories -Psychology Today and Therapy Den. You can also check out Open Path Collective for a list of therapists that provide low cost therapy.
