FEE 費用
I like the description of "psychotherapy is like a mental gym to promote self-care. For most people, it is a worthy investment in finance and time to promote emotional health and whole person wellbeing . My fee is comparable to the rate of other LCSW with same level of experiences and expertise trainings. Below is my current rate:
Individual Psychotherapy (45 minutes) - $250
Couple/Family Psychotherapy (50 minutes) - $300
Sliding Scale Fee will be provided upon agreement. Please do not let the fee dictate your calling for an initial phone session.
INSURANCE 醫療保險
I am currently only a provider with Lyra Health EAP (employment assistance program) and UC Berkeley SHIP (limited openings)
I am considered as an out-of-network PPO provider for all other health insurances. I provide monthly superbill statement for your submission to your insurance company for reimbursement. If you choose to seek reimbursement from your health insurance, Please check your coverage carefully with your health insurance company. Clients usually can reimburse at least half of the cost after their deducible. Average from 50%-100% coverage sometimes even lower than your in network co-payment fee. Clients also use HSA/FSA before tax income. Most health insurance companies are familiar with behavioral health reimbursement process submitted by clients. If you encounter issues, I am happy to assist you.
I accept credit cards, HSA/FSA using IVY PAY- a HIPPA compliant payment method. For protection of clients' privacy, I do not take PayPal or Venmo payment, but possibly via Zelle. Payment is due after each session.
CANCELLATION 取消預約
Appointments are made to reserve a specific time slot for you, and therefore, a minimum of 48 hours notice is required for rescheduling or canceling an appointment. Please call me as soon as possible if you need to cancel your appointment. As customary in this profession, the full fee will be charged for sessions missed or rescheduled without prior notification.
