FAQs
-
We are an out-of-network (OON) provider and do not participate with any insurance companies directly. We will be happy to provide you with a “superbill” to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Most patients are eligible to receive 50-80% of their out-of-pocket costs reimbursed by their insurance. Please contact your insurance carrier directly to find out about your deductible and out-of-network reimbursement for therapy.

Fees vary depending on the service and duration. After a free phone consultation, individual therapy sessions are $240 for 45 minute sessions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is an evidence-based, time-limited, and problem-focused treatment. Many of our patients experience significant improvement in about 3-4 months. Meetings are usually weekly to start, becoming more spaced out as our clients' progress. Some clients benefit from longer-term therapy, and some require ongoing care.
