Welcome

Online Therapy with an Experienced CBT Psychologist

Meet Dr. Lisa

Psychologist

Welcome to my therapy practice! I am now offering online therapy. Clients often ask for concrete strategies in therapy. This is what I offer as a psychologist through my enhanced cognitive behavioral therapeutic approach (CBT). My commitment is to make the therapeutic process and relationship a transformative experience. I strive to offer the most actionable advice available and to be one of the best psychologists in Westchester County, New York. Great things can happen when CBT therapy is experienced within a strong therapeutic relationship. Please do not hesitate to reach out with questions.

Treatment that is affordable

Receiving therapy should not be financially stressful. We work with you to find what is financially comfortable for you. We are out of network with all insurance companies, so if you have out-of-network behavioral health benefits, services will be covered in full or in part by your health insurance. Usually, after you meet your deductible, your insurance provider will reimburse a percentage of a rate determined by them to be reasonable. Most insurance providers cover 60% to 80% of that reasonable rate. That rate might be similar to, or different than, our fee, so we recommend that you check your out-of-network plan for the exact coverage.

We offer decreased fees if you do not have good insurance coverage or have to pay out of pocket.

To check your out-of-network benefits, you will need to call the number on the front or the back of your insurance card (member services) and ask them the following questions:

• What are my out-of-network behavioral health benefits for an office visit?
• What is my out-of-network deductible, and has it been met? 
• What is a reasonable rate for billing code 90791?
• What is a reasonable rate for billing code 90834?

They will tell you the percentage of the reasonable rate they reimburse.

Ease of payment and insurance reimbursement

For payment for our services, we accept credit cards and cash.
We expect our fee to be paid in full at the time of the session. 

Cancellation policy that is fair and considers your financial well-being

You can cancel your weekly session at any time. To be considerate of your therapist’s schedule and time, we require 48-hour advance notice of a cancellation. However, we know that unexpected things can happen at the last minute, so if you do not show up for your scheduled appointment and you have not notified us 48 hours in advance, we will try to reschedule your appointment within the week of your appointment or see you twice the following week (if you are being seen weekly). If we are unable to reschedule, you will be responsible for the full fee for the missed session.
