For all other insurances, I am out-of-network. Some insurance plans, like many PPOs, offer reimbursement for out-of-network providers.

Please be sure to verify your out-of-network benefits and deductible with your insurance provider first.

You are welcome to share anything that you feel comfortable sharing. You may also have questions for me. As we work together, we’ll go deep. I may share observations and insights to help you get what you need out of therapy.
