LENGTH OF THERAPY. The frequency of therapy sessions varies depending on your particular needs and desires, but we typically meet weekly or bi-weekly for 50 minute sessions. Initially, it is difficult to predict the duration of how many sessions will be needed, so we will collaboratively discuss from session to session what the next steps are and how often therapy sessions will occur. The patient reserves the right to request an increase or decrease to frequency at any time. The patient also reserves the right to end treatment at any time, but I request that you communicate this desire directly to me. APPOINTMENTS AND CANCELLATIONS: You are responsible for attending each scheduled appointment and agree to adhere to the following policy: If you cannot keep the scheduled appointment, you MUST notify my office to cancel or reschedule the appointment within 24 hours of the scheduled appointment time. If you give less than 24 hours notice, you are responsible for payment of your regular full fee. If you cancel or reschedule appointments excessively, we may re-evaluate your needs, desires, and motivations for treatment. FEES: The fee for each 50-minute therapy session is $175.00 and payment is due in full at the end of every session. Acceptable forms of payment are: exact-amount cash, check or credit/debit card. In the event that a scheduled appointment time is missed or cancelled less than 24 hours, please refer to the “Appointments and Cancellations” policy above. The clinician reserves the right to terminate the therapy relationship if more than three sessions are missed without proper notification. The clinician charges his hourly rate in quarter hours for phone calls over 10 minutes in length, reading assess- ments or evaluations, writing assessments or letters, and collaborating with necessary professionals (with your permission) for continuity of care. All costs for services requested outside of session will be billed as such. TRIAL, COURT ORDERED APPEARANCES, LITIGATION: Rarely, but on occasion, a court will order a therapist to testify, be deposed, or appear in court for a matter relating to your treatment or case. In order to protect your confidentiality, I strongly suggest not being involved in the court. If I get called into court by you or your attorney, you will be charged an hourly rate of $175.00 to include travel time, court time, preparing documents, etc. COPIES OF MEDICAL RECORDS: Should you request a copy of your medical records, the cost is $10.00 per page.

LENGTH OF THERAPY. Generally the therapy is open ended. This means that we do not work to a set number of sessions. • In the event that I believe I am not the appropriate therapist for you, I will explain why, and if requested, can try to provide details of alternative therapists. • In the event that I need to end my work with you, I shall endeavour to give enough notice to allow opportunity for the ending to be properly addressed.

LENGTH OF THERAPY. Therapy sessions are typically weekly or biweekly for 50-55 minutes depending upon the nature of the presenting challenges. Neurofeedback is recommended twice weekly initially, backing off to weekly once we feel that goals are being met. It is difficult to initially predict how many sessions will be needed. For Neurofeedback, typically changes occur after 10-15 sessions but more may be needed to meet all goals. We will collaboratively discuss from session to session what the next steps are and how often therapy sessions will occur.

LENGTH OF THERAPY. Timescales will vary by client and will be discussed during your sessions. I offer open-ended therapy unless otherwise stated or agreed. As a minimum, at least 3 sessions are recommended. LOW COST COUNSELLING Low-cost counselling is offered for a maximum of 8 sessions in order to give more people, especially those on low-income, access to therapy. If you wish to continue after this, you will move to the standard fee rate. Limited appointments are available at a fixed time on a specific day each week, subject to my availability. The offer is for counselling / talking therapy only. No other therapies will be undertaken during these sessions. There is no means testing, the offer is available to all. It simply relies on honesty and session availability.

  • Infusion Therapy the administration of antibiotic, nutrients, or other therapeutic agents by direct infusion. Note: The limitations on Therapy Services contained in this Therapy Services provision do not apply to any Therapy Services that are received under the Home Health Care provision or to therapy services received under the Diagnosis and Treatment of Autism or Other Developmental Disabilities provision. .

  • Medical Exams 17.1: The Sheriff's Department may require a physical and/or psychological exam by a doctor, at the Employer's expense, to determine the employee's ability to perform his/her regular duties, if deemed appropriate. The employee may obtain a second opinion, at the employee's expense, and in the event there is a dispute between the Employer's doctor and the employee's doctor, both of these doctors shall select a third doctor, whose decision shall be final and binding on the parties. The expense for the third doctor's opinion shall be split 50-50 by the Employer and the employee if not covered by the employee's insurance.

  • PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES Psychotherapy is not easily described in general statements. It varies depending on the personalities of the psychologist and patient, and the particular problems you hope to address. There are many different methods I may use to deal with those problems. Psychotherapy is not like a medical doctor visit. Instead, it calls for a very active effort on your part. In order for the therapy to be most successful, you will have to work on things we talk about both during our sessions and at home. Psychotherapy can have benefits and risks. Because therapy often involves discussing unpleasant aspects of your life, you may experience uncomfortable feelings like sadness, guilt, anger, frustration, loneliness, and helplessness. When treating insomnia specifically, therapy might cause you to experience increased sleepiness and fatigue, especially in the early phases of treatment. On the other hand, psychotherapy has also been shown to have benefits for people who go through it. Therapy often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, significant reductions in feelings of distress, improved sleep, and less fatigue. But there are no guarantees as to what you will experience. Our first session will involve an evaluation of your needs. By the end of the evaluation, I will be able to offer you some first impressions of what our work will include and a treatment plan to follow, if you decide to continue with me for therapy. You should evaluate this information along with your own opinions about whether you feel comfortable working with me. At the end of the evaluation, I will notify you if I believe that I am not the right therapist for you and if so, I will give you referrals to other practitioners who I believe are better suited to help you. Therapy involves a large commitment of time, money, and energy, so you should be very careful about the therapist you select. If you have questions about my procedures, we should discuss them whenever they arise. If your doubts persist, I will be happy to help you set up a meeting with another mental health professional for a second opinion. Please note that the psychological services I provide are not for emergency situations. For emergencies, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. FEES My fee is $395 for an initial evaluation lasting 90 minutes, and $250 for each subsequent psychotherapy session (either in-person or over the telephone) lasting 45 minutes. I charge this same $250 per 45-minutes rate for other professional services you may need, though I will prorate the cost if I work for periods of less than 45 minutes in increments of 15 minutes, rounded to the nearest 15-minute increment (e.g., 22 minutes of service will be charged for 15 minutes whereas 23 minutes of service will be charged for 30 minutes). Other professional services include telephone conversations or email responses lasting longer than 15 minutes, and the time spent performing any other service you may request of me. If you become involved in legal proceedings that require my participation, you will be expected to pay for any professional time I spend on your legal matter, even if the request comes from another party, at the same $250 per 45-minutes rate. I do not charge for time spent writing reports and progress notes as per the standard routine of my care of you. I also do not charge for any time I may spend collaborating with your other providers. From time to time, I may institute fee increases and these will be discussed and agreed upon ahead of time with a new Treatment Contract. If it has been more than one year since our last appointment, then you will re-initiate services at my current standard fee which may be higher than the fee you were previously paying. In addition, if it has been more than one year since our last appointment, you will be scheduled for another initial evaluation (90 minutes) and charged accordingly, with subsequent 45-minute psychotherapy sessions thereafter. INSURANCE REIMBURSEMENT You are responsible for paying your full session fee. I am not in-network with any insurance companies. If you decide to submit claims to your insurance company for reimbursement for any out-of-network benefits you might have, you may do so. However, be aware that the services provided will still be charged to you, not your insurance company, and you are responsible for the full payment. I have no role in deciding what your insurance covers. You are responsible for checking your insurance coverage, deductibles, payment rates, pre-authorization procedures, etc. Missed appointments, late cancellations (i.e., cancellations within 24 hours of service), and telephone session are not typically covered by insurance companies and therefore you will likely be responsible for the full session fee in these instances. If your insurance company doesn’t reimburse you, I am not responsible for refunding you any payment you expected to be reimbursed or otherwise. I will provide you a superbill after each session with the following information that you will need to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement for any out-of-network benefits you might have:

  • Diagnostic procedures to aid the Provider in determining required dental treatment.

  • Insulin Insulin will be treated as a prescription drug subject to a separate copay for each type prescribed.

  • Medical Examination Where the Employer requires an employee to submit to a medical examination or medical interview, it shall be at the Employer's expense and on the Employer's time.

  • Medical Examinations An employee may be required by the Employer, at the request of and at the expense of the Employer, to take a medical examination by a physician of the employee's choice. Employees may be required to take skin tests, x-ray examination, vaccination, inoculation and other immunization (with the exception of a rubella vaccination when the employee is of the opinion that a pregnancy is possible), unless the employee's physician has advised in writing that such a procedure may have an adverse affect on the employee's health.
