Question 3

Do you take insurance?

Accepted Answer

I do not take insurance.  There are specific benefits to this you may not be aware of.  As a private pay client, you will not be limited by the number of sessions in your therapy, your privacy will be protected (insurance companies require communication regarding your treatment), and most importantly a mental health diagnosis is not required outside of utilizing insurance (this is helpful in case you are ever sued or your medical records are subpoenaed). 
hese are all important advantages to using private pay.
You may be able to claim mental health as a medical expense tax deduction. I can help you discover if you can claim your treatment with me as an out-of-network provider.
