Fees for Consulting, Individual Psychotherapy and Coaching
Private Pay:
My fee is $40 for every 15 minutes. Most individual sessions are 60 minutes in length and I offer a discount for payment by check or cash which brings the cost of a one hour session to $120.
Out-of-Network:
Many plans will reimburse customers who use out-of-network providers, including Health Savings Accounts. The amount of reimbursement depends on your plan. If your insurance plan does allow out-of-network reimbursement, I can provide you with a receipt containing all the information you will need to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
In-Network:
I am “in network” and can bill the following insurance plans directly: Capital Blue Cross and Medicare Part B. (Please make sure you are enrolled in Medicare Part B.)
I have also been able to bill some out-of-Pennsylvania Blue Cross/Blue Shield insurance plans directly.
You will be responsible for any co-pay or deductible at the time of the session.
If you are a customer of one of these insurance plans and would like to use your insurance, I will need to check your eligibility with your insurance company before we start sessions.
For all other insurance plans I am considered “out-of-network”, including Health Maintenance Organizations such as Medicare Advantage plans and Medicaid.
Points to consider:
- Paying privately for psychotherapy affords you greater privacy.
- Psychotherapy, as I practice it, is time-limited, so total costs are relatively low.
- Treatment Works! There are certainly no guarantees, but people who work on their issues almost always feel better and are able to move on with their lives.
- If you have a health savings account through your employer or on your own, you can probably be reimbursed for care received from a psychologist.
- Depending on your tax situation, you may be able to deduct therapy fees.
- Consulting and Coaching are not considered “medically necessary” and so are not reimbursable through insurance.
