Payments & Billing
Insurance
Currently in-network in Georgia only with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. Your co-pay will be accepted at the time of service and your insurance billed for services. For all other states, self-pay payment will be collected at the time of service.
Self-Pay Option
The following are accepted for payment: All Major Credit Cards, Debit Cards, FSA Cards, HSA Cards If you would like to use PayPal, Venmo, or another funding option, please email: info@relationshiptherapy.us
Good Faith Estimate
The No Surprises Act went into effect on January 1, 2022. This requires clinicians to provide clients who are self-pay, which means paying out-of-pocket with no insurance, with a “Good Faith Estimate” of therapeutic treatment costs. It will be emailed after the first appointment.
SuperBill
If I am not in-network with your insurance, you will be provided an insurance “Superbill,” that you may download through the client portal. This is a specialized receipt of services that you may then submit directly to your insurance company to file your own claim for reimbursement.

RULES for Telehealth
1. No Driving
While it’s tempting to make use of a long commute for a session, therapy may trigger emotional upset when challenging and difficult topics are explored. It is in the client’s best interest to focus on the therapeutic work without having to navigate distractions of traffic, lane changes, merging traffic, etc. Driving is not permitted during sessions.
2. Current Address
At the beginning of each and every session, the therapist will ask for your current address and location. In the event of an emergency, such as an unexpected medical emergency, your therapist will need to contact emergency services with your correct location.
3. Therapy & State Licensure
Therapy licenses are not nationwide, they are governed by state laws and regulations. So, states require that clients are located in a state where the therapist is licensed to practice therapy. Currently, for this practice this includes: Georgia, North Carolina, Texas, and Florida.
4. NO RECORDING OF SESSIONS
Please note that recording any part or whole of a session, taking screenshots, recording calls, or any type of recording or saving of the session is NOT ALLOWED. This is due to both legal and ethical issues.
5. Secure & Confidential Environment
Typically, when a client visits a therapist’s office, a therapist provides a soothing, safe environment for the session. For telehealth, clients will need to provide for themselves this soothing safe space that’s both quiet and confidential for the duration of the appointment. A few suggestions include a spare room, the closet, an office, a quiet back porch, or a parked car if it is safely located.
6. No Substance Use
The reason clients may not use substances such as a relaxing glass of wine during a session is because if speech is slurred and balance is off, it is impossible for the therapist to determine via video whether the client is experiencing a medical emergency such as a stroke, or a serious reaction to mental health medications, or intoxication. Emergency services will be called for a well-check if a client’s behavior is concerning to the therapist.
7. Comfortable and Appropiate
Clients do need to be appropriately dressed for the session. However, shoes are completely optional for both client and therapist.
