Fees/Insurance
I currently accept most Aetna plans, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas, Cigna, Optum, UMR, and United Healthcare. My out-of-pocket fee starts at $150 per session for individuals and $175 for couples. If I do not accept your insurance, contact your plan to inquire about your out-of-network benefits. I can provide a superbill at your request.
If you are seeking couples counseling and you plan to use your insurance, please note that insurance will require me to select one partner as the “identified patient.” In my practice, this is the partner who contacts me for couples counseling. The identified patient receives the diagnosis and treatment plan. For this reason, some couples decide to opt out of insurance and pay out of pocket. Please let me know if this is a concern and I will provide information on how to opt out of your insurance plan.
Insurance can provide greater access to therapy by eliminating financial barriers. However, insurance plans have their own set of rules for what is considered “medically necessary.” This means that if you use insurance, you will receive a diagnosis according to your symptoms.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of what your services may cost.
