What Choices Do you have?
Careful consideration should be taken when deciding on which services you choose and the method you choose.
USING INSURANCE BENEFITS
Some people who seek individual or relationship counseling choose to use insurance and many will have a copay. I accept cash, checks, Debit cards and Visa/Mastercard.
I work with many insurance plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Great West, Humana, Magellan, MHN California, United Health and Value Options.
Should you choose to use your insurance, they may require a pre-authorization and may limit the number of sessions you can use under your plan.
Most insurance companies do not cover Coaching or Hypnosis. Inquire about my coaching and hypnosis services since these are solution oriented and you are paying for a solution to a specific issue.
SELF PAY
There are advantages if you choose Not to use your insurance. You maintain control and freedom of choice regarding your health care. You choose frequency, number of sessions and you can receive a more personal, tailored approach for services. I would not be required to give you a mental health diagnosis that would require I prove "medical necessity." Your personal information will not be disclosed to your insurance company and placed into the Medical Information Bureau's data base. Importantly, to you, I can reserve a prime time schedule for your appointments; and give you a significant reduction in my fees for non-prime time appointments. Inquire about this when you call to schedule your appointment.
