Like many other mental health providers, Therapist has formal relationships only with some managed health care providers. These are Aetna and MHN.

The reasons for this include the overwhelming administrative time spent in dealing with insurance companies and financial concerns. This means private pay clients are expected to pay full fee at the time services are rendered while managed health care clients are expected to pay their co-pay.
