No, our providers do not contract with any insurance plans. This includes Medicare, Medicaid, and Tricare.

Our providers are considered out-of-network. We advise before scheduling an appointment to contact your insurance provider and inquire about your out-of-network benefits to determine if our practice is a good fit for you!

Patients will be provided with an itemized receipt once payment is received in full. This itemized receipt (superbill) can be used for the patient to self-submit for possible insurance reimbursement with their insurance carrier. 

Our providers offer both in-person and virtual visits for established patients. However, for the initial new patient evaluations the patient must be seen in person. During the course of treatment your provider may discuss a preference for in-person office visits versus virtual online visits dependent on the patient's need.

Unfortunately, our psychiatrists are only licensed in the state of Washington. If a patient's primary residence is outside of Washington they cannot be treated by our psychiatrists.
