HMO's / PPO's Accepted: We strongly discourage the use of insurance for psychotherapy services. I stopped accepting all insurance because they use it against you to permanently raise your premiums, deny you insurance in the future or to deny you appropriate services. It is not in your best interest. It is a serious problem and we no longer will work with insurance companies. We want to provide quality services and refuse to compromise the care we'll provide for you!
