Fees and Payment


Rates vary depending on the service in which you are interested. Please contact me to briefly discuss by phone your current situation and potentially schedule an initial meeting.


I am considered an “out of network” provider for most insurance companies. This means that if your insurance company offers out of network benefits (typically reserved for PPO insurances), you should receive some reimbursement for the cost of my services. Most insurance companies that provide out-of-network benefits cover between 50%-80% of the cost per session. Contact your insurance company to find out what your specific coverage is and if you have “out-of-network” benefits.


I kindly request that sessions be paid for at the time of each appointment by cash or check.


No Surprises Act


As you may know, under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers are required to provide a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges to those who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing upon request or at the time of scheduling health care.

If you are uninsured or are enrolled but not seeking to file a claim with your plan or coverage (self-pay) you have a right to a “Good Faith Estimate” to help you estimate the expected charges you may be billed for as a result of receiving health care services with us.

During your initial phone consultation will review and explain your expected medical care cost.

Furthermore the Government Wants you to be Aware:

  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.


  • Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item.


  • You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.


  • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.


  • Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
