Good Faith Estimate

Under the No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your mental health care is expected to cost.

A Good Faith Estimate applies if you are uninsured, not using insurance, or choosing to self-pay. It outlines the expected charges for therapy services so you know what to anticipate.

You can request one at any time: before scheduling, during intake, or at any point during treatment. I will provide it in writing and am glad to answer any questions about fees or the cost of care. To request one, contact me. For my session fees and the insurance plans I accept, see Fees & Insurance.

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute it. Please keep a copy of your estimate, and note that a dispute must be started within 120 calendar days of the date on the bill.

I want you to feel fully informed about the financial side of your care. A Good Faith Estimate does not obligate you to receive care from my practice.
