​Assessment, Evaluations, & Testing:
  • ​Fees for testing services vary based upon the purpose of the assessment, types of measures used, and amount of time required. Clinician's time includes meeting with clients for interviews and testing plus time spent interpreting results, contacting collateral sources as needed, and writing reports. The amount of time varies from approximately 3 - 8 hours depending on the extent of the assessment being conducted. Fees, which include cost of testing materials, generally average $175/hour.
​
  • I offer specialized assessments for healthcare providers, including nurses as part of the Texas Peer Assistance Program for Nurses (TPAPN) and the Texas Physician Health Program (TXPHP). Please contact me for more information or to schedule an appointment. 
​
  • I also offer evaluations required by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) for the Licensee Psychological and Emotional Health Declaration (L-3). Scheduling is managed by Occupro Testing, an approved TCOLE provider. Please contact me for more information and instructions on scheduling.

Payment
Payment can be made at the time of the appointment using a debit/credit card or Flexible Spending Accounts or Health Spending Accounts (FSA/HSA). I do not participate in any insurance panels and do not bill insurance for services. However, as an out-of-network provider, I can provide you with a statement of services that will allow you to submit a claim directly to your insurance company for reimbursement. I am happy to discuss this process with you. ​

Cancellation Policy
Your appointment time is reserved for you. Please provide at least 24 hours notice to cancel or reschedule; otherwise, the full session fee applies. As part of mutual accountability, if I must cancel with less than 24 hours notice, your next session is free. Late arrivals cannot be extended.​

Good Faith Estimate Notice
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
