Monday: Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Skype: In special circumstances, video sessions via Skype are possible. Generally, Skype sessions are only an option when agreed upon in advance, for planned for use in long-distance situations, i.e. Skype is not an option for sessions that had originally been scheduled to take place in the office, but that then can’t be kept for one reason or another. It’s also important to note that, at this time, insurance does not cover sessions conducted via Skype. Method of Payment (select one) Cash Check Insurance *If you wish to use insurance, I will provide you with receipts coded to insurance industry specifications. You can submit these receipts to your insurance company for reimbursement. Since I work exclusively for you, I don’t take direct payment from insurance companies. I am an “out-of-network” provider. This enables me to deliver a higher quality of care, with individualized attention, and complete confidentiality. For more information about payment and insurance, see the “Fees” section of this website. ** Clients may also use Venmo (an online payment system similar to PayPal) Sign here (typed name serves as electronic signature) Date of signing
