Frequently Asked Questions

Do you accept Insurance? 

Our practice operates as an "out-of-network provider," meaning we don't directly participate in your insurance network. However, many insurance plans offer out-of-network benefits that may cover a portion of the cost of assessments and therapy or allow the payment to be applied to your yearly deductible. After receiving our services and making payment, we will provide you with a detailed invoice that includes the CPT code(s), diagnosis, and all necessary information to submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement.
