Health Insurance
 

Many health insurance policies provide at least partial coverage for counseling services provided by Licensed Clinical Psychologists.  Please check your insurance coverage carefully by asking the following questions:

 

• Does my plan include mental health insurance benefits?

• What is my deductible,  has it been met, and when does it begin again?

• How many sessions per year does my insurance cover?

• What is the coverage amount per therapy session, and what is my co-pay?

• Is approval required from my primary care physician? 

• Are there specific providers who are approved by my plan?   

 

As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Melanie is an approved provider for most insurance plans including Health Alliance, Health Link, and Blue Cross Blue Shield, but it is important to verify this at the beginning of therapy.
