LOCATION
*At this time, I am providing teletherapy only. It is unclear when in-person therapy will be resumed due to increased rates of COVID-19 in the Chicagoland area.*
I have an office in Evanston. The address is at 636 Church St., Suite 421, in downtown Evanston. The office is within a short walking distance of the Northwestern University campus, and is a short drive from the Loyola University campus. Parking is available at the parking garage on the northeast corner of Church St. and Chicago Ave.
My office location is also easily accessible by the CTA.
On the El, the Evanston office is accessible by the Purple line, which can be accessed by the Red, Brown and Green lines. Take the Purple line to the Davis stop in downtown Evanston. Walk .3 miles east to 636 Church St.
INSURANCE
I am paneled on Blue Cross/Blue Shield PPO, and on all Cigna plans.
I accept the United Healthcare plan that is specifically for Loyola University students.
I accept private pay in the form of check or cash. If you have a different health care plan, I can provide receipts for your insurance company to help you seek reimbursement for my out-of-network services.
As of January 1, 2022, Section 2799B-3 of the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) requires health care providers and facilities to make publicly available, post on a public website of the provider or facility (if applicable), and provide a one-page notice that includes information in clear and understandable language on:
(1) the restrictions on providers and facilities regarding balance billing in certain circumstances,
(2) any applicable state law protections against balance billing, and
(3) information on contacting appropriate state and federal agencies in the case that an individual believes that a provider or facility has violated the restrictions against balance billing.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.
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 bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or 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.
