Free Consultation
An initial consultation is available to you. This will allow you to make an informed choice about whether I fit with what you are looking for and for me to be able to share with you some ideas about how I might help you. To make an appointment please contact me.
Fees
Please call me to discuss my fees. I take payment with check or cash, and offer a number of sliding scale spots for those who need a reduced fee. I offer daytime and evening appointment times.
Insurance
OUT OF NETWORK:
- Therapy with me is typically reimbursable if you have out-of-network provider coverage with your insurance. I will gladly provide you with a monthly statement and help you with the necessary forms if you would like to obtain out-of-network reimbursement.
IN NETWORK PROVIDER FOR:
- United Healthcare
- Magellan Behavioral Health
- Value Options
- Medicaid
- Presbyterian Centennial Care
- Blue Cross Blue Shield NM Centennial Care
- Molina Centennial Care.
If you have insurance, you may want to ask the benefits person whether you can be reimbursed for an out-of-network provider. I will provide you with the necessary monthly statement you can submit to your carrier. If you have a pre-tax Medical Savings Plan (MSA), psychotherapy is generally covered. I accept Medicaid.
Please be aware that insurance companies require me to provide them with a mental health diagnosis before they will pay for treatment. I may also be asked to provide information such as treatment plans or summaries, or, in rare cases, copies of your entire therapy record. This information then becomes part of the insurance company files and may be stored digitally. In some cases, insurance companies may share your information with a national medical information databank. You may read this for more detailed information.
