If you would like to utilize insurance, please contact your insurance company to inquire about mental health benefits. I will submit all claims to your insurance provider. All payments are due at the time of your session. Some questions to ask:

  • Does my plan cover mental health services? If so, what type of mental health services are covered?

  • Are both in-person and telehealth services covered?

  • Do I need a referral or prior authorization before beginning therapy?

  • Do I have a deductible for mental health services?

  • Is there a copay for mental health services?

  • Are there any session limits per week, month, or year?

I am in network with the following insurances:

  • Cigna/Evernorth

  • Optum

  • Connecticare

  • United Healthcare

  • Husky/CT Medicaid

Private pay or out of network

Some people choose not to use their health insurance for therapy sessions for a variety of reasons. Insurance companies require a formal mental health diagnosis and have the authority to determine the type, duration, and frequency of treatment. This can limit the therapeutic process and place unnecessary restrictions on your care.

By working privately:

  • You retain full confidentiality, with no diagnosis or session details shared with a third party.

  • We focus on your goals, not just what's billable. This includes personal growth, life transitions, and emotional wellness.

  • You choose the pace and duration of therapy—without session caps or external interference.

If I am not contracted with your insurance company and you would like to utilize your out of network benefits, I would be happy to provide you with a statement called a “SuperBill” which you can use to submit those claims directly to your insurance company. Please note that I do not submit out of network claims on your behalf.
