Practice Information
-
If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. I do not charge for cancellations due to medical emergencies.
-
I am a pay for service provider. However, I will provide you with a monthly superbill that you can submit to insurance for out of network reimbursement. Many of my clients receive 80% reimbursement for their session fee. I recommend that clients check and understand their specific insurance out of network coverage prior to starting counseling.
-
I provide clinical services during weekdays from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm.
If an emergency issue arises, I recommend seeking care from your family physician, Emergency Department, or that you call 9-1-1.
