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. Major credit cards are accepted forms of payment.
What is your cancellation policy?
To avoid being charged for a session, please notify me at least 48 business hours in advance if you need to cancel or reschedule.
Cancellations made with less than 48 business hours' notice, or appointments missed without notice (no-shows), will result in a charge of the full session fee to the credit card on file.
Special note for Monday appointments: Cancellations and reschedules for Monday sessions must be made the Thursday prior.
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.
