If you do not have any of the above listed insurance plans, that is okay! We can submit a superbill to your insurance plan to utilize your "out-of-network" benefits. You will pay the full session fee upfront, and your insurance company will provide you with a reimbursement for the session, making the session cost more affordable for you.
I partner with Mentaya, a service that streamlines getting reimbursed for your therapy sessions through out-of-network benefits.
If you have any further questions about Mentaya or insurance reimbursements, please feel free to reach out to me for more information.
