Fees & Insurance
Fees
Please contact me to discuss fees for services. These will depend on the type of
service, how long a session you would like, and whether you have or intend to
use health insurance. Typical individual and couples therapy sessions last 45
minutes. Longer sessions are available and often preferred.
If you do not intend to use insurance, please note that my standard fees are:
$125 for individual or couple (standard 45 minute session)
$185 for individual or couple (extended 75 minute session)
$150 for assessments, testing, or report writing (per hour)
$250 for legal matters, such as depositions, court (per hour; two hour minimum)
Payment
Fees or insurance co-payments are payable by cash, check, Visa, or
Mastercard at the time of service, unless other arrangements are made. Under
special circumstances, I can establish a billing schedule. To ensure your full
session time, I ask that you pay at the start of each session.
Insurance
The insurance or managed care plans I accept include:
■ AETNA
■ AMHN (American Mental Health Network)
■ BHS (Behavioral Health Systems)
■ Blue Cross/Blue Shield (only out-of-state)
■ Blue Shield of California
■ CorpHealth
■ Humana
■ Medicare (but not MediCal)
■ MHN (Managed Health Network)
■ Multiplan
■ PHCS (Private Healthcare Systems)
■ Tri-Care/Tri-West
■ EAPs (employee assistance programs)
■ Other pre-arranged managed care payment plans
I will submit appropriate paperwork for reimbursement in these cases. You are
responsible for co-payments and deductibles.
If you are attempting to have your health insurance reimburse you for part or all
of my services, I will be glad to give you an appropriate form to submit. Please
note that your insurance contract is between you and your insurance company
and the fee remains your responsibility if for any reason services are not
covered. Also note that insurance companies vary widely in their policies
regarding reimbursement for psychological services and my services may not be
covered. I strongly recommend that you call your insurance company and use
this checklist (PDF file) to determine your mental health benefits.
I reserve the right to suggest a private pay agreement instead of insurance
reimbursement if your insurance company’s terms require excessive amounts of
my time for obtaining pre-certifications or filling out paperwork.
