Below are some questions you may want to ask your insurance company before we begin working together:
Does my policy cover mental health services?
How much will my policy pay for each session (codes 90792, 99214, 90833)?
Is there a deductible that must be met before I can be reimbursed?
Where should I mail or fax the superbill?
Is there anything else I should know?

Grace Psychiatry operates primarily as a self-pay practice. This model allows us to maintain longer appointment times, reduce administrative barriers, and provide more personalized care.
We currently accept select insurance plans on a limited basis. Insurance eligibility and coverage will be reviewed individually prior to scheduling when applicable.
Patients using out-of-network benefits may request a superbill for possible reimbursement through their insurance carrier.

During your initial new patient consultation, we will discuss what brings you to see me.
I typically ask questions about your current mood and stressors. I also ask about your current and past physical and mental health. We will discuss your social and family history. After a thorough review of your symptoms, we will discuss any applicable diagnoses, review treatment options, and plan for follow up.
-
It depends. We will meet more frequently in the beginning while we are getting to know one another and making any treatment adjustments. Once you are stable, we will meet less frequently.
-
I provide supportive therapy using a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach. If you are considering therapy, let’s discuss it. If I am not the best provider for you, I am happy to make some recommendations.
-
A physician assistant (PA) is a licensed medical professional who holds an advanced degree and is able to provide direct patient care. They work with patients of all ages in virtually all specialty and primary care areas, diagnosing and treating illnesses and performing procedures.
-
PAs are capable of:
Diagnosing illnesses
Ordering and interpreting laboratory tests and X-rays
Prescribing medications
Developing and managing treatment plans
Advising patients on preventative care and optimal health practices.
While PAs work in collaboration with a supervising physician, this does not mean they work under direct supervision of a physician. Most work independently, operating under a set scope of practice determined by state law.
