Services, Fees & Insurance

Therapy Services

I am licensed in the state of Oregon and offer individual, in-person therapy sessions for adults at my SW Corvallis office or via telehealth throughout Oregon.

My standard sessions are 55-minutes. If you have needs outside of that framework, we can work out a plan that fits your unique needs.

Fees

55-minute session: $200

Session fees are due at time of service. I accept payment via cash, debit or credit card, including FSA (Flexible Spending Account) and HSA (Health Savings Account).

Insurance

I am considered an out-of-network provider. As an out-of-network provider, I am happy to provide you with a monthly superbill for you to submit to your insurance company to then be reimbursed for the previous month’s session fees that qualify as out-of-network services. Please note - providing a superbill requires me to give you a mental health diagnosis which will be added to your medical record and does not guarantee that your insurance provider will reimburse you for my services.

Questions you can ask your insurance to get clarity on out-of-network reimbursement:

  • Does my plan provide out-of-network reimbursement for mental health treatment with a licensed clinical social worker?

  • Does my plan provide out-of-network reimbursement for grief counseling, bereavement counseling, grief therapy?

  • What amount or percentage is reimbursed for out-of-network mental health treatment with a licensed clinical social worker?

  • Is there a cap on the number of sessions you will reimburse?

  • Is there a deductible I need to meet before you will start to reimburse me?

No Surprises Act and Good Faith Estimate

The No Surprises Act is a federal law that went into effect on January 1, 2022. The No Surprises Act was designed to protect people from unexpected medical bills.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
