Fees and Insurance
I charge $160 for a 45 to 50-minute therapy session. Clients must pay at the time of the appointment, and I accept cash, checks, and credit/debit cards. Cash discounts are available.
Currently, I accept the following insurance plans/compensation:
- Aetna
- Colorado Access (Medicaid)
- Medicare
- Meritain
- 17th Judicial District Crime Victim Compensation Fund
I am an out-of-network provider for all other insurance plans, and I am happy to provide you with an invoice to submit to your flexible spending account, Health Spending Account (HSA), or insurance carrier who may reimburse you for working with an out-of-network provider.
For psychological testing and assessment, half the estimated fee is due at the first testing appointment and the balance is due when the report is complete. Discussion of the specific fee will occur during the initial consultation.
Late Cancellations and Missed Appointments: I ask that you provide 24 hours’ notice to cancel your appointment at no cost to you. This allows me an opportunity to fill your appointment time with another client. If sufficient notice of a cancellation is not provided, or no notice is given at all, my standard fee will be assessed for that session. Unless otherwise negotiated, the total past-due amount is due during the next appointment.
If you have any questions or to make an appointment, please feel free to contact me by email or by phone at (720) 560-4016. I am happy to provide a free 15-minute phone consultation to help you determine if I am the right therapist for you.
Good Faith Estimate/No Surprise Act
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
- You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. (These specified elements of care do not apply to your outpatient psychotherapy services with me).
- Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or 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.
