Transparency matters.

At Anxiety and Wellness Psychological Services, I believe that therapy works best when you know what to expect—both on the treatment and financial side. Below you’ll find answers to common questions about fees, insurance, and billing. Let’s make sure the practical details work for you.

Do you accept insurance?

I am considered an out-of-network provider and am not in-network with any insurance companies. Therapy services are provided on a fee-for-service basis, and payment is due at the time of each session.

If you would like to use your out-of-network insurance benefits, I will gladly provide you with a “superbill,” or therapy receipt, that you can submit to your insurance company. Depending on your plan, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement of session costs. Many clients also choose to use HSA (Health Savings Account) or FSA (Flexible Spending Account) cards to pay for sessions, which can offer additional tax advantages.

Because each insurance policy is different, I encourage you to contact your insurance provider directly to understand how your out-of-network benefits apply. While I’m happy to assist with superbills for documentation, I cannot guarantee insurance reimbursement.

What are your fees?

My standard session rates are:

• $285 for the initial 80-minute diagnostic intake session

• $285 for each standard 45-50 minute therapy session

• $425 for extended 80-minute therapy sessions

We will collaborate to determine the session length and frequency that best supports your treatment goals. These details will always be clearly discussed at the outset of therapy. My fees are consistent with those of other licensed psychologists in the community who have similar experience and specialization.

How do I pay for sessions?

Payment is required at the time of each session. Payment is made through the secure Simple Practice online portal. I accept:

• Major credit cards

• HSA (Health Savings Account) cards

• FSA (Flexible Spending Account) cards

Will I receive unexpected bills?

Absolutely not.

I am committed to upfront, clear communication regarding fees, so you will never be caught off guard by surprise charges.

Additionally, the Federal No Surprises Act (effective January 2022) was went into effect to move away from surprise medical bills. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of the cost of psychotherapy services. To request an estimate or if you have any questions, please contact me by email, phone, or contact form.

Transparency is not just a legal requirement here—it’s part of my practice philosophy. You deserve to be informed and in control of your care.
