Insurance & Superbills

I am in network with Premera insurance at this time. Otherwise, I am considered out of network (OON) with other insurance companies. 

I am paneled with Spring Health EAP. I have chosen to be part of this EAP panel because they offer reasonable benefits and coverage to their patients and provide reasonable compensation to medical providers and therapists.

You can also use your Health Savings Account (HSA) and/or Flexible Savings Account (FSA) to pay for therapy!

I can also provide superbills to be submitted to your insurance if you have another plan outside of Premera. I recommend contacting your insurance company ahead of time to determine your reimbursement rate, as rates vary depending on your insurance plan and is not always a guarantee.

Sliding scale options: I understand therapy can be a financial burden and for this reason I have limited sliding scale slots based on a first come first serve basis. Please explore all options to find what suits you best.

No surprises Act Disclosure  

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges. 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 items or services. 

You can ask your healthcare 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 or call (800) 368-1019. 

FAQs

Yes, I sure do! My physical office space is located in Columbia City, right by Seward Park at 5100 S Dawson St Suite 103, Seattle WA, 98118. Please note that in-person office sessions are reserved for clients who choose to come in on a regular basis and are based on a first come first basis as I am only available in the office on limited days.

I currently am only available online through telehealth for clients residing in Colorado State.

I work with individuals ages 18 and up, and couples. My clients come from various backgrounds most of which represent South Asian, Black, Southeast Asian, other ethnic and minority groups, and LGBTQAI+ populations.

Although, I am considered OON with insurance, I can provide you with a superbill to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Please call your insurance company ahead of time to determine your reimbursement rate, as rates vary depending on your insurance plan. Clients in this case are expected to pay up front and then request reimbursement from their insurance company.

Here are a few detailed questions to ask your insurance when you call them:

  • “Hi, do I have out-of-network benefits for outpatient mental health?”
  • “If so, how much will I get reimbursed per session for a 50-minute session”?”
  • “Would I have to meet a deductible first before my out-of-network benefits start to kick in?”
  • “Am I eligible to use these benefits for tele-health appointments and in-person appointments, or only in-person?”
  • “Do I need to be referred by an in-network provider, such as my PCP, in order to see an out-of-network therapist?”
  • “When can I expect to see my reimbursement?”
  • “How will I receive my reimbursement?”
  • “Is there anything else I should know about my out-of-network reimbursement for mental health services?”

A standard 50-minute session is $160 for individual therapy services.

A standard 60-minute session is $185 for couples therapy services.

I can and do provide longer session times with different rates, and this will be determined upon your needs.

I am currently available Monday-Wednesday, and Friday from 9am-7pm. My in-person office days are currently set to Mondays only.

Sessions are typically 50-53 minutes long; if you want a more extended session, we will determine this before the appointment is scheduled and then schedule accordingly.

I ask that you please notify me 24 hours in advance if you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment. If I do not hear from you within 24 hours, I will consider you a “no show” and charge you the full fee for a session.
Therapy is not a linear process for any given individual, couple, or family. Therefore, the answer to this question is a tricky one, and it all depends on what your goals are and what you would like to achieve from therapy. If you are ready, then let’s set up a free 20-minute consultation and discuss this further.

I have been a therapist for four years now and have worked in various environments, ranging from community mental health to group practice and now serving those in my own private practice.

I am fluent in English, Hindi, Urdu, and Punjabi and can provide therapy services in any one of these languages.
