Out-of-network fees:
New intake (90 minutes) - $220
Follow-up visits (60 minutes) - $200
All fees are due at the time of service. We will discuss fees during the initial consultation before your first appointment. You will be billed directly through your client portal.
Increasing access to mental health services to those who have historically had less access to care is something we feel strongly about. If you are a student of color with limited resources, please contact me about my discounted therapy fee program.

I am an in-network provider with in the following insurances in Colorado only:
UnitedHealthcare/Optum
I am an out-of-network (OON) provider for all other insurance companies. However, just because I'm OON does not mean you won't get any coverage! See below.

Just because I'm out-of-network (OON) with your insurance doesn't mean your therapy sessions won't be covered!
Many insurance plans offer OON benefits that may reimburse you for a portion of your psychotherapy costs. Depending on your plan, this can make therapy significantly more affordable.
You can contact your insurance provider using the number on the back of your insurance card to learn more about your OON benefits.
Upon request, I can provide you with a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for OON reimbursement. Please note that insurance reimbursement typically requires a clinical diagnosis, which we will discuss during your initial appointment.
To make things easy, I've partnered with Thrizer to make using your out-of-network benefits easier.
Thrizer helps you check your benefits, submit insurance claims, and manage reimbursement without the hassle of filing claims yourself.
If you're eligible, Thrizer also an offers Instant Reimbursement option, allowing you to pay only your estimated out-of-pocket portion at the time of your session instead of paying the full fee upfront and waiting for reimbursement.
Thrizer charges separate claim-processing fees, and reimbursement is subject to your insurance plan's coverage, deductible, and eligibility requirements.

Late cancellations or missed appointments (no-shows) will result in a $100 fee.

Payments are due at the time of service of your appointment. All major credit and debit cards are accepted.
If payment is a barrier, flexible payment plan options can be discussed. I’m committed to making this accessible whenever possible.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.
Under federal 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 or the dispute process, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 985-3059.
