Fees & Insurance

Rates
Fees are within the customary range for a 50-minute psychotherapy hour.  Please call (571) 308-8392 or (202) 596-2350 for DOT-SAP Assessment rates.

Payment
Clients are billed at the end of a calendar month, with the expectation that payment is received by the 15th of the following month.  Cash, check, and all major credit cards accepted.

Cancellation Policy
If you do not show up for your scheduled therapy appointment, and you have not notified me at least 24 hours in advance, you will be required to pay the full cost of the session.

Insurance
Services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:

• Do I have mental health insurance benefits?

• What is my deductible and has it been met?

• How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?

• What is the coverage amount per therapy session?

• Is approval required from my primary care physician?

• How much does my insurance pay for an out-of-network provider?

I accept the following plans:

• Aetna

• BlueCross BlueShield

• Cigna

• Johns Hopkins EHP

• US Family Health Plan

Flexible Spending Accounts
Some Employers offer the option to deduct a set amount from your salary pre-taxed for medical and dependent care expenses. Since therapy is considered a medical expense, you can include the projected expense for therapy in your medical option. In this way, you will be deducting the cost of therapy from your taxes. Check with your employer about this option.
