New Client Forms for Amanda, Laura, Jessica & Sara

We are self pay and not paneled with any insurance companies. Because we are licensed clinicians, some insurance companies may reimburse for services once they are paid. There is never a guarantee or promise that insurance will reimburse you for monies paid.

Insurance companies require a contract for clinicians who take insurance. When you contract with insurance you are considered paneled. You may find that it's difficult to find a provider that takes your insurance. This is because insurance companies require clinicians to agree to a price that is determined by the insurance company. Clinicians do not get paid until the insurance company processes and agrees to each individual claim. Services are often limited. Clinicians are required to spend many unpaid hours managing invoices and payments with insurance companies and keeping up with required documentation and paperwork.  By providing self pay services we are able to better focus on providing the most appropriate and evidence based treatment to our clients. Care is dictated by the needs of the client, not the insurance company.

You will be responsible for calling your insurance company and asking if they reimburse for services provided by out of network clinicians. Clients will pay for their sessions at the time of service. The client can ask their clinician for a Superbill that can be sent by the client to their insurance company. The insurance company then remits payment to the client. The only part your therapist participates in is the provision of a Superbill.

A Superbill is an itemized receipt that a client can request at the end of the month. This invoice shows the diagnosis, services received and the cost paid for these services. The Superbill can be provided to you by your clinician. This invoice is sent to the insurance company, by the client. An insurance company may choose to deny the Superbill. If the insurance company requests a new Superbill with a change or addition, please notify your therapist ASAP.
