Insurance

We are an out-of-network practice. At the time of your session you would pay the fee for your session. We will be happy to provide you with a receipt that you can submit to your insurance company. Because we are licensed therapists, our professional services do qualify for patient reimbursement under many insurance plans. 

​To help determine what your insurance company will cover, you may want to ask your insurance company...
​

• Do I have an out-of-network benefit if I see an out-of-network provider for individual or family psychotherapy?
• Do I have a deductible for out-of-network services?  
• Do I need a pre-authorization for out-of-network services?
• How many sessions will the insurance company authorize before a treatment plan is required?
• What are the “reasonable and customary” rates in the 21208 zip code for the initial evaluation session (CPT code 90791) and for ongoing sessions (CPT code 90834 or 90847)? If you are inquiring about reimbursement for group therapy, the CPT code is 90853.
• What is my copay?
