Insurance
I am primarily a cash pay practice. However if your PPO insurance company provides reimbursement for out of network providers I can provide you a receipt with dates and fees of your sessions for you to reclaim your out of pocket expenses from your insurance company. You will be reimbursed at the rate allowed by the insurance company. Please check with your health insurance or employee assistance plan on the scope of your coverage. The following questions may be useful to ask:-
• Do I have mental health benefits?
• How many sessions per calendar year am I covered for?
• How much does my plan cover for an out of network provider?
• What is the coverage amount per therapy session?
• Do I need approval from my primary care physician?
• How much is my annual deductible and have I met it?
I also accept clients through the California Victims Compensation Program (Cal VCP) go to http://vcgcb.ca.gov/victims/ for more information on this service.
