My fee is $210.00 for 45 minute individual therapy sessions. The first session is longer, 60-75 minutes, and is prorated accordingly ($270-$350). My practice is fee for service, meaning our financial agreement is between the two of us, and any insurance reimbursement must be arranged between you and your insurer. My services qualify for out of network mental health coverage by insurance companies. The extent of coverage varies with different policies, and I strongly encourage you to contact your insurer prior to our first session to determine what your out of pocket costs will be. These are the questions that will help you determine your costs:
1) Do I have out of network mental health benefits?
2) What percentage will you cover for: an initial evaluation (CPT code 90791) and for individual psychotherapy (CPT codes 90834 and 90837)?
3) Do I have a deductible to meet before I will be reimbursed for services?
