Do you accept insurance?​

I do not accept insurance in my practice. I’m considered an out-of-network provider (OON). I can provide you with a bill containing all pertinent codes so that you may submit it to your insurance provider in hopes that you will receive full or partial reimbursement. ​To find out if you have OON benefits, contact your insurance company. If you plan to submit to your insurance company, you may want to contact them and discuss your “out of network” benefits.

​

What is your fee?

My fee for a 50-minute therapy session is $150 for individual sessions and $175 for a couple sessions or two or more individuals. Payment for your session will be deducted from the credit card on file with the online client portal.​

​

Appointments and Forms:

Please complete the forms on the client portal before your first scheduled appointment. By completing these forms before your first appointment, we can use your appointment time more wisely.

​

Cancellation Policy:

If you must cancel your appointment, I request that you provide a 24-hour notice. You will be charged the full fee of session if the notice is less than 24 hours.

​

What to Expect:

Upon arrival, please have a seat in the waiting room. I ask that you text me to let me know you've arrived, and I will greet you at our scheduled appointment time. ​

​

Do you offer Group Therapy?

I offer group therapy for women seeking recovery from infidelity and betrayal trauma. Please get in touch with me for more information. 

 

Do you offer Tele-Therapy?

No, I only offer in person sessions. 

​

“GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE” (GFE)

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your care at Connect will cost. Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

1. You have the right to receive a GFE for the total expected cost of all services requested at Connect.

2.  Once your initial appointment is made, a GFE will be made available in your client portal for you to sign.

3.  At any time, you can also ask for a GFE before you schedule an item or service.

4.  If you receive a bill at least $400 more than your GFE, you can dispute the bill.

5.  For questions or more information about your right to a GFE, visit http://www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
