RATES and Insurance

My rates for individual counseling are: 

 

Initial Consultation (15 minutes) - Free 

Intake Evaluation (60 minutes) - $250.00

Standard Therapy Appointments (50 minutes) - $200.00

 

Insurances Accepted: Aetna, Oscar, Oxford, United Healthcare, OSU Student Resources, OSU Prime Care, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Horizon Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Jersey, and Lyra Health

 

AT THIS TIME I CAN ONLY ACCEPT INSURANCE FROM OHIO RESIDENTS.

The first task of therapy is developing a plan. During your intake evaluation, we will discuss presenting concerns and collaboratively identify goals of therapy. Typically we will then schedule weekly or biweekly standard therapy appointments, though the frequency of these may decrease or increase given your specific needs. 

I am a primarily out-of-network provider and will provide you with receipts that contain all of the necessary information to apply for possible reimbursement from your health insurance provider (this is called a ‘superbill’). Please know that you will be responsible for the fee at the time of our appointments, and a portion of the fee may then be reimbursed to you by your insurance provider at a later time. Before our first session, please contact your insurance company to find out your specific benefits regarding out-of-network coverage. I recommend asking the following about your coverage:

 

  • What is my annual deductible for outpatient mental health, and how much of it has been met this year? 

  • Are my medical and mental health/behavioral health deductibles separate? 

  • During the calendar year, how many sessions does my policy cover? 

  • What paperwork or forms do I need to submit for sessions to be covered?

  • Is approval or pre-authorization required before my sessions will be covered?

During our initial phone call, I will be happy to answer any questions you have about fees, insurance reimbursement, and payment options. Please note that you can also use your FSA/HRA/HSA accounts to cover the cost of services.
