1. Contact Erin at 972-978-9784 (voice or text) and find out if I’m taking new clients in your area.
2. Grab the paperwork: You'll need to bring the "Consent and Privacy" form, and the "Personal
Data Form" with you (select the “Student” form for minors). No need to email it in advance.
I no longer file insurance, and no longer participate as a network provider in managed care; however, most insurance companies provide benefits for "out-of-network providers" which could be used for my services if you choose to file for reimbursement yourself. Be sure to ask what the deductible and benefits are for an "out-of-network provider".
If the thought of handling your own insurance is daunting, here are a few things that might help:
1. Call your insurance company and ask what your mental health benefits are for an "out-of-network provider". In some cases the cost difference is minimal, in other cases the difference is outrageous - just ask.
2. At the end of each session I will provide you two copies of a receipt that contains all of the information your insurance company needs to send you a reimbursement. Keep one, in case you need to resubmit.
3. Consider pre-addressing several envelopes so you can send in the receipt immediately after each session.
4. If it will help you, I can hold a check up to 30 days as you wait for your reimbursements to arrive.
5. In order for your insurance company to reimburse for counseling, I will have to submit to a mental health diagnosis such as depression, anxiety, or adjustment disorder. Marriage counseling is never covered by insurance, although it is permissible to have a spouse participate in counseling sessions along with the "identified patient" (we just have to decide who the "identified patient" is going to be).
These payment links are ONLY for distance clients who have not already been set up for credit card billing - unless we've discussed it and I've asked you to use these buttons, you can ignore them. Each of these fees will include an additional $3.65 which is the amount I'm charged per transaction.
