Why Private-Pay?

We do not bill insurance directly, but we provide superbills for clients who choose to seek out-of-network reimbursement. Many insurance plans offer partial reimbursement for out-of-network mental health services. We'll provide all the documentation you need to submit to your insurance company.

Insurance often requires diagnoses, limits session frequency or modalities, and mandates record sharing that can conflict with confidential, individualized care. By operating as a private-pay practice, we can:

• Protect your complete privacy without third-party access to records
• Design treatment based on clinical need, not insurance requirements
• Avoid unnecessary diagnoses on your permanent health record
• Provide flexible session lengths and treatment modalities

We offer limited sliding-scale options and short-term package rates to make care more accessible. Contact us to discuss eligibility and current availability. We're committed to finding a way to work with clients who are genuinely invested in the therapeutic process.

A superbill is a detailed receipt that includes all the information your insurance company needs to process out-of-network reimbursement claims. It includes diagnosis codes, session dates, fees paid, and provider credentials. You submit this directly to your insurance company, and they reimburse you according to your out-of-network benefits.

Reimbursement varies significantly depending on your specific insurance plan and out-of-network benefits. Typical reimbursement ranges from 50-80% of our session fee after you meet your deductible. We recommend calling your insurance company and asking about your "out-of-network mental health benefits" to understand your specific coverage.
