Out of Network Payment Options:
I've partnered with
Mentaya, a service that streamlines getting reimbursed for your therapy sessions through out-of-network benefits.
Mentaya is perfect if you have out of network benefits and are unsure about the process of submitting paperwork for reimbursement or simply want to skip the hassle of paperwork!
How it works:
1. Sign up for Mentaya
here 2. Our practice will enter your session into the platform.
3. Mentaya submits the claim and handles any insurance follow-up.
4. You get reimbursed by insurance!
Mentaya charges a 5% fee per claim, which includes handling any paperwork required, dealing with denials, and calling insurance companies. For example: If your appointment is $200 you would pay Mentaya $10 to submit the claim. If your appointment is $150 you would pay Mentaya $7.50.
It's risk-free: They guarantee claims are successfully submitted, or a full refund of their fees.

How do I learn more bout my out of network benefits?
Depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for services to be covered in full or in part. When you contact them you can verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services and if you have the ability to meet with a provider
out of network.
I would recommend asking these questions of your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:
- Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?
- Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?
- Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
- Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?
- What information do they need for Out of Network Services and how do I file a claim?
Please contact me for any additional questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you!
