The charge for the initial psychotherapy
session, which runs about an hour, is $125. The charge for a standard 45-50 minute psychotherapy session is $105. 25-minute
sessions are $60, and 75-80 minute sessions are $170. Group therapy meetings are 90 minutes long and cost $45.
I am a provider for MHN (Managed Health
Network), Blue Cross/Blue Shield and UnitedHealthcare StudentResources. If you are a member of any of these insurance plans,
you'll pay the co-pay specified by your plan. I file the claims and your insurance company will pay me the balance according
to their contracted rate. You may have a deductible and/or a limit on the number of sessions per year. Different plans have
different benefits, and if you have MHN or the Federal BCBS plan, you'll need authorization prior to your first appointment.
Please contact your insurance company and inquire about your outpatient mental health benefits.
Some insurance companies contract their
mental health benefits out to other plans. For example, you have plan "XYZ," but your plan uses MHN for mental health. If
so, I am an in-network provider for your plan. Conversely, you have Blue Cross/Blue Shield but the outpatient mental health
benefits are handled by another company. In such a case, I'm not a covered provider. Some BCBS plans contract out mental health
treatment at higher levels of care, but cover outpatient psychotherapy office visits, in which case I am a covered provider.
It can be confusing-- check your outpatient mental health benefits information for these details.
If you have an insurance plan other
than MHN, BCBS or UHC StudentResources, you may have Out-of-Network benefits that will cover part of the cost. If so, I'll
supply you monthly with completed forms that have all the information necessary to file your claim. I can also provide you
with receipts for a flexible spending health-care account.
A Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy session runs about 1-1/4 hours. The fee is $95
per session. Insurance does not cover PRYT.
Please note that Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy is not a form of psychotherapy. I do not do PRYT
with my psychotherapy clients, and I do not practice psychotherapy with my PRYT clients. I am happy to recommend a psychotherapist
to a PRYT client should they ask, or should I believe it would be a helpful means of addressing concerns that are beyond the
scope of PRYT. I'm happy to recommend other PRYT practitioners to psychotherapy clients, as well.
Private yoga instruction, which is
not intended to be therapeutic in nature, is $75 per hour.
I
accept cash or checks. At this time, I'm not set up to take credit cards. I strive to make payment terms as user-friendly
as possible. Please feel free to call or email me with any questions about fees, payment or billing.
