Insurance and Fees

My session fees range from $175-200. I am paneled with Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO, Aetna, Evernorth/Cigna, and United Healthcare.

Insurance only covers psychotherapy treating a diagnosed mental health condition (eg, Generalized Anxiety Disorder). Many of my clients are able to use insurance when a sex or relationship issue is treated as a component of a general mental health concern.

Couples therapy is generally not billed to insurance in my practice. Most couples sessions focus on relationship and sexual concerns, which are not typically covered as medically necessary treatment by health insurance. For this reason, couples therapy is generally offered as a private-pay service. In some circumstances, couples sessions may be appropriate to bill to insurance when the primary purpose of treatment is addressing a diagnosed mental health condition affecting one partner and the session is part of that individual’s treatment. Coverage is ultimately determined by the client’s insurance plan, so clients should confirm their benefits directly with their insurer.
