FAQs
Do you offer in-person appointments?
I am offering services exclusively via telehealth at this time. Sessions are conducted using HIPAA compliant software.
What is your payment policy & fees?
My fee for service is within what is standard and customary for the San Francisco Bay Area. Please contact me to discuss further. Payment is due at the time of service. Checks and major credit cards are accepted forms of payment.
What is your cancellation policy?
If unable to attend a scheduled session, please let me know at least 48 hours in advance. If you do not cancel 48 hours in advance or simply do not show up for an appointment, your credit card on file will be charged your full session fee for the time reserved.
For Monday appointments, cancellations and reschedules must be made by 5 PM the Friday before.
Do you accept insurance?
I do not accept insurance, but can provide a superbill statement that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Please check with your insurance company for “out-of-network” coverage information. It may be helpful to ask the following questions:
Do I have mental health insurance benefits?
What is my deductible and has it been met?
How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
What is the coverage amount per therapy session?
Is approval required from my primary care physician?
What does “out-of-network provider” mean?
“Out-of-network” means that I am not contracted with - and do not bill - insurance. Since I am “private pay” I am not constrained by the limits of insurance policies, including session limits. This allows me to truly tailor treatment to meet your needs. I can provide clients with a ‘Superbill’ (see question above) upon request.
