    *I have a 24 hour advance cancellation policy. You will be charged the full fee without 24 hours notice of cancellation. I offer one free waiver and will give a waiver if I have to cancel a session with you without 24 hours notice.

  • Out of Network Coverage

    I will provide superbills (itemized receipt) for all clients who request them. Depending on your out-of-network coverage, you are likely to have a portion of your services with me covered as an out-of-network cost. Usually this looks like paying upfront, submitting superbills of our sessions to your insurance company and the insurance company will cut you a check to reimburse you for their part. Every insurance has different policies. I am happy to provide you with more information about what questions to ask your insurance company to determine coverage.

  • Questions to ask your Insurance about out of network coverage

    Here are some questions to ask your insurance company to determine if you have out of network coverage and how much will be covered:

    • Does my plan provide reimbursement for out-of-network mental health care with a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Oregon?

    • Do you cover CPT codes such as 90837 or 90834?

    • If so, is there a separate deductible?

    • What percentage of out-of-network costs does my plan cover?

    • Do I need pre-authorization for out-of-network services?

    • Is there a limit to the number of sessions that will be reimbursed per year?

    • How do I submit for out-of-network reimbursement?

  • Sliding Scale

    I do have a sliding scale for a limited number of clients. This sliding scale is determined on a case-by-case basis and is limited to 1 year of work per each client, so that I have room to offer this service to other clients. I will keep a waitlist for sliding scale and will let you know if the waitlist is open, as it will be capped at 4.

    I am able to offer extended sessions as a pro-rated cost as long as it is discussed ahead of time and clinically appropriate.

  • Financial Values

    Please note that I have thought long and hard about my fee as someone who identifies as an Anti-Capitalist. It is a difficult dialectical balance trying to make myself economically accessible while also balancing value for my own work and time. I decided to go off insurance panels for now while I am in school, as insurance companies are often unethical in how they pay clinicians, as well as will often reject claims causing clinicians to eat the costs. They are also often difficult to work with on the client side and often put arbitrary caps on services and demand a diagnosis. These fees are commensurate with my experience and training, as well as built to help me, as a chronically ill and neurodivergent clinician, sustain the energy and build the resources to show up for social justice work in the ways I want to.

  • Good Faith Estimate

    The US Federal Government passed a law called “The No Surprise Act,” which went into effect on January 1, 2022. Under that law, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. By law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

    ● You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

    ● Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

    ● If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

    ● Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
