• Yes, I take Cigna, Aetna and Optum health insurance through. If you’re unsure about your coverage, I’m happy to support you in checking.

  • Some individuals want their Story Rewritten without insurance restrictions. 

  Why? Because real healing takes time, and your story is unique. Therapy isn’t about following a script or meeting quotas, it’s about creating a space where you feel seen and understood. Staying independent allows me to tailor our work to what you truly need, without being restricted by session limits or standardized treatments. This means we can go at your pace and focus on what matters most to you. This allows us to focus solely on your well-being without the constraints imposed by insurance requirements. Rest assured, our priority is to ensure that you receive the highest level of care and support throughout your therapeutic journey.

  
  If the fee feels like a stretch, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I offer sliding-scale options because I believe therapy should be accessible. If you feel like we’d be a good fit, we can find a way to make it work. You're not alone in this—I’m here to support you every step of the way.

  
  As a general rule, call your insurance company prior to our first session in order to verify out-of-network reimbursement and coverage by asking the following:

  • Does my plan include out-of-network, outpatient mental health coverage?

    • If so, what percentage of the fee do you reimburse for therapy with a licensed LMFT?

    • Do I have an annual deductible and has it been met?

    • Is there a limit to the number of sessions my plan covers per calendar year?

    • How do I submit claims?

  • Some carriers have been authorizing Telehealth during the COVID pandemic but intend to eventually drop this coverage. Clients must contact their plan administrator to verify that their PPO plan covers outpatient mental health via telehealth with an out-of-network provider.
