Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you take insurance?​

    • Insurance companies are selective about what services they choose to cover, therefore dictating treatment and not allowing me to develop comprehensive and individualized plans. For this reason, I do not accept insurance. 

    • If you have a PPO insurance plan and you have met your deductible, it is likely that a percentage of the service fees will be reimbursed to you at the out-of-network rate. I cannot guarantee the rate of reimbursement your plan allows for. If you have any questions, you will need to contact your insurance company prior to scheduling an appointment to confirm your reimbursement.​

    • When contacting your insurance company ask about coverage for the following "CPT codes" ( these are codes all insurance companies use for billing):

    • New Patient Visit: 90792

    • 30 min follow up visit: 99214 and 90833

    • 60 min follow up visit: 99214 and 90836

    • A detailed invoice will be provided to you for submission after you have made a payment.
       

  • Do you see patients in person?

    • At this time, I am only seeing patients through telepsychiatry. 

 

  • What types of psychotherapy do you do?

    • I have training in a variety of psychotherapy styles including psychodynamic psychotherapy, CBT, supportive, parts work and internal family systems. The type of therapy I use is dependent on your symptoms and goals for treatment. Often, I will use a combination of styles during our session.
       

  • Can I see you if I already have a therapist?

    • I am happy to collaborate with your therapist to provide optimal treatment. 
       

  • Can I see you if I only want medications?

    • ​Yes, you can see me for only medication management. If I believe other modalities may be beneficial, I will discuss these with you at the appointment. 
       

  • Can I see you if I do not want to take medications?

    • Yes, I believe psychotherapy, complementary and alternative treatments are great options for treatment. If I believe that medications may benefit you, I will provide you with this information. 
       

  • What other healing modalities do you provide?

    • I incorporate breath work, mind body techniques, astrology and Reiki into our session when appropriate. I believe that through these techniques we can assist our body's and mind's innate healing power. ​​​
