Investing in Your Well-Being

Welcome to the section dedicated to providing clarity on my clinical fees. I understand the importance of transparency and trust in the therapeutic process, including financial aspects. My commitment is to ensure that you have a clear understanding of my fees and any associated policies, allowing you to make informed decisions about your mental health care. If you have any questions or require further clarification about my fees, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. 

At this time, I am primarily accepting new clients with Cigna/Evernorth insurance and am currently in-network with Cigna/Evernorth for psychotherapy services.

As part of ongoing changes to my practice, participation with other insurance plans is being phased out during the coming year. As a result, I am generally not accepting new clients through other insurance networks and encourage prospective clients to verify that they have active Cigna/Evernorth mental health benefits before scheduling services.

If you are searching for a Cigna therapist, Cigna psychologist, Evernorth therapist, Evernorth psychologist, Cigna EMDR therapist, Cigna trauma therapist, or online therapy covered by Cigna, I provide secure telehealth psychotherapy for adults throughout California, Hawaii, Florida, Virginia, and Washington DC.

Please note that I do not participate in any Medicaid, Medi-Cal, or other state-sponsored insurance plans, including plans that may be administered by Cigna or another insurance company.

If you have questions about your Cigna/Evernorth coverage, copays, deductible, telehealth benefits, or eligibility for services, I encourage you to contact me or verify your benefits directly with Cigna/Evernorth before your first appointment.

I am happy to discuss insurance coverage and answer any questions during a complimentary 15-minute consultation. 

To utilize your insurance benefits for therapy sessions, kindly reach out to your health insurance company before scheduling your initial appointment to confirm your coverage. Locate your insurance contact information on your insurance card. When inquiring, please seek information on:

1. The insurance company responsible for your behavioral health benefits, as it may differ from your primary insurance provider.
2. Your deductible, the out-of-pocket amount before your health insurance begins coverage.
3. Your copay per visit, the amount not covered by insurance, required for each appointment.

Please note that not all benefit plans encompass Telehealth Services. Confirm the eligibility of Behavioral Health Televideo Services with your insurance provider.

I utilize an app called Ivy Pay to facilitate payment for your therapy sessions, offering the convenience of accepting major debit, credit, HSA, or FSA cards, such as Visa, MasterCard, Discover Card, and American Express.

Following your initial therapy session, Ivy Pay will send you a text message, streamlining the process for effortlessly adding your preferred card to file. This user-friendly feature enhances the overall payment experience, ensuring a seamless and secure transaction for your ongoing sessions.
