What are the benefits to paying out of pocket?

• No diagnosis needed - fewer assessments around what is means to be “normal”

• Fewer hoops to access care that works for you

• Increased privacy: insurance will not ask to review your treatment plans, etc. They also cannot reduce your session frequency or decline payment down the line.

• You control the cadence, how long our relationship lasts.

• Able to access a strong therapeutic alliance without worries about “in network”

If you choose to pay out of pocket, I am happy to provide a super bill, and do offer some courtesy billing

How does a super bill work?

• If your insurance has out-of-network benefits, you are able to request reimbursement for therapy sessions. You would be responsible for understanding this part of your plan.

  - If you choose this path, I will provide a diagnosis code, session code… and that’s it.

• I receive my payment upfront, from you, and your insurance company reimburses you for the claim - sometimes this is actually cheaper for you!
