We are NOT in-network with any other insurance plans, however we can provide a “superbill” for you to submit to your insurance carrier for possible reimbursement. We are an “out-of-network” mental health provider that may be reimbursed by your carrier depending on your plan. A “superbill” is a receipt of payment for services that can be provided at the end of each month.

Because we know one size does not fit all, we believe everyone’s circumstances are unique and the length of time therapy can take to allow you to accomplish your goals depends on your desire for personal development, your commitment, and the factors that are driving you to seek therapy in the first place. Please talk to your therapist during your intake session if you have concerns or questions about the anticipated length of treatment.
