New Clients

We are intent on helping you grow through the difficulties you have encountered in life.  There are times in all of our lives when the most direct solution is to seek a new perspective, which allows us to see a way through to control out own destiny.  We are “on-panel” with most insurance companies.  We are unable to accept Medicaid.  We do accept assignment on Medicare.

Your First Visit And What To Bring With You:

• Picture ID.
• Current Insurance Cards.
• Referral from Primary Care Physician (if required by your insurance).
• Payment for your Deductible.This is the amount your insurance company insists that you pay each year, before they will start paying their share.  This amount can very from $50 to $100, but the latest innovation to discourage you using your insurance benefits are deductibles of $1000 to $5000, and I've seen $10,000.  These are often paired with “Health Savings Accounts”, which you pay into with each pay period, with pre-tax dollars.
• Your Copay. This is the amount ($5 to $60), that your insurance company insists that you pay after they begin to pay (after the deductible is met).
• List of medications and dosages.
• Registration packet. Please CLICK HERE to download it.

Wise Words

"Defeat may test you; it need not stop you. If at first you don't succeed, try another way. For every obstacle there is a solution. Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. The greatest mistake is giving up." - Smallwood and Kilborn
