Payments
An active credit card is required on file to process any balances on your account. Payments are due at the time of session. We have the right to cancel future sessions to avoid accruing debt in the event you are unable to clear a balance and we have not come to an agreement for repayment.
Insurance
We are in network with Aetna. You are responsible to contact your insurance company by calling member services at the back of your card to ensure that your insurance is active and that you have Behavioral Health benefits through Aetna prior to starting therapy. An Aetna representative is the best person to quote you costs for therapy. If at any point your insurance plan or terms change email and let us know.
Out Of Network
We will provide you with a superbill for services rendered. This means that you will pay us in full and we will give you a receipt that has all items required by insurance for reimbursement. We cannot guarantee reimbursement as this decision lies with your insurance provider but we recommend contacting them to understand payments owed under your specific plan. A few things to ask:
- How much do you reimburse for mental health outpatient therapy?
CPT Codes: 90837, 90791 Modifier: GT (for telehealth sessions)
- Is there a deductible I need to meet before getting reimbursed?
- Where do I submit superbills? (address, email, portal)
- Do you offer Single Case Agreements

Ending Therapy
Ending a relationship can bring up some feelings. Therefore, it is important to have a termination process that closes our work together in an appropriate manner. This will look different for each person, depending on the length and intensity of our work together.
Therapy may come to an end when you have met your therapy goals, if we reach a place where you are implementing what you learnt in therapy and shifts are observed or if you are managing better and we agree it is time to end. It may also end if we have contracted for a specific short-term piece of work. When client's graduate from therapy it is not uncommon for them to return for a session or two as needed or to restart therapy as necessary.
Your therapist reserves the right to end therapy at their discretion. Reasons for termination include but are not limited to, untimely payment of fees, failure to comply with treatment recommendations, conflicts of interest, failure to participate in therapy or when your needs are outside of your therapist’s scope of practice, and/or if you are not making adequate progress in therapy.
If you are using insurance, your health insurance company requires that we end when services are not "medically necessary." This means that they may refuse to reimburse if they don't cover certain diagnoses or concerns that bring you to therapy. Termination may also be necessary when ethical standards of care are compromised or in question.
We will not terminate a therapeutic relationship without first discussing reasons for such decision. Your therapist will never abandon you.
If therapy is terminated for any reason or you request another therapist, we will provide you with a list of qualified psychotherapists to continue care with. You may also choose someone on your own or from another referral source. Psychology Today is a great resource or your members directory on your insurance website.
If you don't schedule an appointment for three consecutive weeks due to any reason, unless other arrangements have been made in advance, for legal and ethical reasons, we must consider the professional relationship discontinued.
This does not mean that you cannot reach back out to resume therapy, but this could mean that we may not have immediate availability to schedule you.
