We can provide you a superbill for you to request reimbursement through your insurance or for the payment to go toward your out of network deductible. If you prefer this option, you can contact your insurance provider to determine your out of network benefits, deductible, and options for reimbursement through superbills.

Accepted Payments:
PRIVATE PAY session invoices: Cash, check, credit card, debit card, HSA, FSA, HRA, and checking account payments are accepted.
INSURANCE session invoices: Credit card, debit card, HSA, FSA, HRA, and checking account payments are accepted.

No Surprises Act/Good Faith Estimate Information
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost using out of network providers. Under the 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 can also ask your health care 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. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.
