Self/Private Pay Information

We accept self/private pay if you chose to pay out of pocket.

If your insurance isn’t listed, we can provide a superbill you can submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement.

Under federal law, you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of expected costs if you don’t have insurance or choose not to use it.

What is a superbill?

An itemized receipt containing my information as your provider, which you can submit to your insurance company for possible partial reimbursement based on your out-of-network benefits. I recommend confirming your reimbursement eligibility with your insurance carrier before scheduling.

Accepted Payment Methods

I accept all major credit cards, debit cards, HSA, and FSA cards. A 3% processing fee applies to credit card payments only — no surcharge on debit, HSA, or FSA payments. Payment is due at time of visit.

Patient safety doesn't stop at the appointment — it extends to every payment, every transaction, and every piece of information shared with this practice. Your card information is fully protected. Payments are processed through a HIPAA-compliant, PCI-DSS-compliant payment system. Full card numbers are never visible to the practice or stored on the website.

With Insurance — Your cost is your plan's copay or coinsurance. We verify benefits before your first visit.

Self/Private-Pay (with no insurance) — Standard Intake $300 (60 min), Complex Intake $400 (75 min), Med Management $175 (30 min), Extended Follow-Up $200 (45 min).

  • Psychotherapy is added only when clinically indicated during a medication management visit. You will never be charged for services you don't need — just straight facts and quality care.

Scheduling & Cancellation Policy

A valid credit card is required to schedule your appointment. This holds your reserved time and is only charged for late cancellations or no-shows — appointments changed or cancelled with less than 48 hours' notice, or missed without notice, are subject to a $175 fee for new client intakes and $100 for medication management/follow up visits. Your first missed or late-cancelled appointment receives one courtesy waiver.
