Therapy Rates and Insurance in NYC and Brooklyn

We accept insurance for individual therapy, couples therapy, somatic therapy, and brainspotting. Coverage for brain mapping and qEEG assessment varies by plan. We recommend contacting our office before your first session so we can verify your specific benefits and walk you through what is covered under your plan.

We are in network with Cigna, Aetna, Northwell Direct, MagnaCare, EmblemHealth, BlueCross BlueShield, GHI, and the New York State Health Insurance Program (NYSHIP). If you do not see your plan listed, contact our office. We may still be able to work with you as an out of network provider.

If we are not in network with your insurance plan, we can bill as an out of network provider. Many insurance plans include out of network mental health benefits, which means your plan may reimburse a portion of the session cost even if we are not on your plan's approved provider list. We recommend calling the member services number on the back of your insurance card to ask about your out of network mental health benefits before your first session. Our office is happy to submit your out of network claims on your behalf.

A superbill is an itemized receipt that includes all the information your insurance company needs to process an out of network reimbursement claim. After each session, we can provide you with a superbill that you submit directly to your insurance plan. Your plan will then reimburse you directly based on your out of network benefits. The reimbursement amount depends on your specific plan, deductible, and out of network coverage percentage.
