Insurance
​and Rates

Insurance

I am an in-network provider for Premera, Lifewise, First Choice, and all plans that use the First Choice network (e.g., Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of WA Access PPO plan only).   For clients with these plans, I will bill insurance directly for sessions; copays are usually required. Many other insurance policies (e.g., Aetna, Regence) allow for out-of-network coverage for outpatient mental health services.  In this case, you would pay for services up front (see rates to the right), receive a monthly invoice to submit to your insurance company, and get reimbursed directly for, typically, a percentage of charges. Every insurance plan is different, so please check your plan to understand your benefits and applicable deductibles prior to our first meeting.

When checking with your insurance company, they may want to provide:

  • $140 for the initial session; $135 for ongoing visits. All appointments are 55-minute sessions.
  • ​Check or cash appreciated, debit/credit cards accepted (American Express, Mastercard, Visa, Discover). 
  • Payment is due at the time of service.  


​Reduced Fee Spots

​I believe that financial hardship or lack of adequate health care coverage should not be a barrier to obtaining needed counseling. 15% of my practice involves providing counseling to those who would not otherwise be able to afford it due to loss of insurance or personal hardship.   While all of my sliding scale spots are filled at present, I can add you to my waiting list for a reduced fee spot should one open up in the future.
