We are contracted Medicare providers.
We currently do not take traditional insurance, for many reasons. Many insurance companies strictly limit the number of sessions without regard to the client’s needs. Furthermore, insurance companies require a psychiatric diagnosis to justify treatment, and this is not always appropriate.
We can provide you a superbill to provide your insurance company so that you can get reimbursed according to your insurance plan’s terms.
We take Venmo, Zelle and Credit Cards.
