Fees and Insurance
Payment and Insurance
We accept a limited number of insurance policies. Please visit each therapists’ page to see what insurances they accept (therapist page).
For all other insurances we are considered an out-of-network fee-for-service therapy practice. The full session fee is due at the time of service. We accept all major credit cards (American Express, Master Card, Discover Card, Visa). Payment can also be made by cash or check.
You may be eligible for insurance reimbursement. Many insurance policies will reimburse some of the cost for an out-of-network provider (typically 40-80% depending on your policy). In this case, we provide a superbill which is part of the paperwork needed for an out-of-network claim.
Our fees are the average standard for psychotherapy in the DMV area.
Individual psychotherapy session: $230.00/50-minute and $325/90-minute
Couples psychotherapy session: $300.00/50-minute and $425.00/90-minute
Supervision: Supervision is free to all staff. Check out career options! Just looking for supervision? Please contact us directly for rates.
Navigating Out-of-Network Benefits
Out-of-Network (OON) benefits allow you to see a provider who is not in your insurance plan’s network and still receive some level of reimbursement for services. Many insurance policies will reimburse some of the cost for an out-of-network provider (40-80% depending on your policy).
We strongly recommend that you verify your OON benefits before your first session. We recommend that you call your insurance company and ask the following questions:
Do I have Out-of-Network benefits for mental health services (CPT code: 90834, 90837 (individual therapy) or 90847 (couples therapy)? Does my policy cover telehealth sessions?
What is my deductible for Out-of-Network services, and how much of it has been met this year?
What percentage of the therapy fees will be reimbursed once the deductible is met?
Is there a session limit or cap on OON benefits for therapy?
Do I need pre-authorization or a referral to use my OON benefits?
What is the procedure for submitting OON claims, and how long does it typically take for claims to be processed?
Are there any forms or documentation that I need to include when submitting a claim?
Cancellation Policy
We have a 24-hour cancellation policy. If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please notify us at least 24 hours in advance. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the scheduled appointment time, as well as missed appointments, will be subject to a cancellation fee. For those using insurance or utilizing superbills, please note that insurance companies do not reinburse for cancelled or missed session fees.
Good Faith Estimate
If you don’t have health insurance or you plan to pay for health care bills yourself, generally, health care providers and facilities must give you an estimate of expected charges when you schedule an appointment for a health care item or service, or if you ask for an estimate. This is called a “good faith estimate.” A good faith estimate isn’t a bill. The good faith estimate shows the list of expected charges for items or services from your provider or facility. Because the good faith estimate is based on information known at the time your provider or facility creates the estimate, it might not include every item or service you get from another provider or facility, even if some items or services may seem connected to the same service.
Generally, the good faith estimate must include expected charges for:
The primary item or service.
Any other items or services you’re reasonably expected to get as part of the primary item or service for that period of care.
Providers and facilities must give you the good faith estimate:
After you schedule a health care item or service. If you schedule an item or service at least 3 business days before the date you’ll get the item or service, the provider must give you a good faith estimate no later than 1 business day after scheduling. If you schedule the item or service OR ask for cost information about it at least 10 business days before the date you get the item or service, the provider or facility must give you a good faith estimate no later than 3 business days after you schedule or ask for the estimate.
That includes a list of each item or service (with the provider or facility), and specific details, like the health care service code.
In a way that’s accessible to you, like in large print, Braille, audio files, or other forms of communication. Providers and facilities must also explain the good faith estimate to you over the phone or in person if you ask, then follow up with a written (paper or electronic) estimate, per your preferred form of communication. Keep the estimate in a safe place so you can compare it to any bills you get later. After you get a bill for the items or services, if the billed amount is $400 or more above the good faith estimate, you may be eligible to dispute the bill.
