FAQ

  • I work with women 18 years or older. Most women who see me are experiencing psychiatric symptoms influenced by reproductive life transitions and/or hormonal changes. I specialize in PMDD, the perinatal period, and the menopause transition. 

  • We are not in-network with any insurance companies. We focus on providing personalized, patient-centered care without insurance restrictions. You can pay out-of-pocket and submit a detailed receipt (“superbill”) to your insurance for potential reimbursement.

  • Being out-of-network allows us to:

    • Dedicate full attention to your care without insurance limits.

    • Offer longer, deeper sessions (typically 60 minutes).

    • Customize treatment plans without modality or session limits.

    • Maintain privacy — your personal information stays between you and your provider.

  • A superbill is a detailed invoice with codes your insurance company can use for out-of-network claims. We provide this for psychotherapy and psychiatric medication management sessions.

  • Yes! Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) can often be used to cover therapy and psychiatric care.

  • Payment is due on the day of your appointment. We accept credit, debit, HSA, or FSA cards. Charges are processed automatically on the card you provide.

  • No. Therapy and psychiatric care are not subject to sales tax in Washington.

  • Possibly. Out-of-pocket costs for therapy and medical care may be deductible. Please consult a tax professional to see if this applies to your situation.

  • Coverage varies by plan. If you submit a superbill, your insurance may reimburse you for out-of-network services. We recommend calling your insurance provider to confirm:
