I am located in Maryland and currently seeing clients all across the DMV virtually through teletherapy. I am also able to see clients virtually in 31 states (including DC & VA) through PSYPACT :

Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

The list of PsyPact states is continuing to grow. Please reach out if your state isn’t listed.

PSYPACT is an interstate compact which offers a voluntary expedited pathway for practice to qualified psychologists who wish to practice in multiple states. PSYPACT is designed to facilitate the practice of telepsychology across state boundaries. In order to practice telepsychology in PSYPACT states, psychologists licensed in PSYPACT states only, can apply to the PSYPACT Commission for an Authority to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT).

More information regarding PSYPACT and its requirements can be found at www.psypact.org.

At this time, I connect with all clients remotely from a HIPAA-compliant video system. However, I plan to offer a hybrid of in-person and online therapy in the near future.

Phone Consultation (15 min)- Complimentary

Initial Individual Intake Session (60 minutes) $230

Ongoing Individual Therapy Session (50 minutes) $215

At this time, I am using my education and abilities to offer services to the community outside of reduced rate or pro bono services.

If you are in need of free or low-cost therapy, I recommend Open Path Psychotherapy Collective and the Maryland Pro Bono Counseling Project. If you have insurance and are not financially able to invest in out-of-pocket therapy, please contact your insurance carrier for a list of approved providers.

For a variety of reasons including concern for your privacy and confidentiality, I do not take insurance.

If you would like to use your out-of-network (OON) insurance benefits, I can provide a “superbill” that you would submit to your insurance for OON (out of network) claims for possible reimbursement.

See below for questions to ask your insurance provider

Many insurance plans have Out of Network (OON) benefits. This means that a portion of my full therapy fee (typically 50-75%) could be covered by your insurance plan. To find out, please contact your insurance provider and ask them the following questions:

Do I have Out of Network benefits for behavioral health? What is covered? How much does your plan pay for Out of Network therapy?

Do I have a deductible I need to meet before I can use Out of Network benefits?

Do you cover telehealth appointments for Out of Network providers?

What is the best way to be reimbursed for therapy if I used Out of Network benefits?

This is our chance to get to know each other! At the start of the the first session, we will begin by reviewing the intake paperwork and informed consent.

During this initial session, we will discuss what’s bringing you into therapy as well any goals you might have for our work together. Additionally, we will review your background and history (ex: mental health history, family, social, medical, and relationship history) and other information that might be helpful for me to understand you.

Together, we will work to develop a plan for therapy. Sometimes, it may become evident that you could benefit from an approach or technique that I do not offer. In that case, I may provide you with referrals to other clinicians that may be more appropriate for your clinical needs.

Item The cost of services depends on a number of factors including your provider’s fee, frequency of services, and duration of treatment. You can receive an estimate of service costs as described below.

As of January 1, 2022, under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

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 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 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.

On a case by case basis, I do offer consultation to other mental health professionals. Please reach out for more information.
