I do not provide child custody evaluations or substance abuse treatment. Because I am not a physician, I cannot prescribe medication, but I can work with your doctor (or refer you) if medication would benefit your treatment.
My fees are:
$80 for a 90 minute session
or $65 for a 1 hour session
The fees are per session and include some psychological testing and written material.
Payment is due at the time of the session
What about insurance?
I do not bill insurance companies directly. Should you decide to involve your insurance company, I will provide you with a statement you can send in to gain reimbursement. Since each company has different requirements for reimbursement, you will need to inquire from your company.
(However – please be advised that because of managed care and computer databases, insurance companies can NO LONGER assure you of confidentiality.)
