Using Insurance?

Dr. Gomes participates as a provider for a number of insurance companies. It is important to contact your insurance company to confirm his participation in your specfic plan.

Please be aware that insurance companies allow a limited amount of sessions (typically 10-20). If your insurance companies does not believe your case is "medically necessary", they will not pay for sessions.

Also, insurance companies only pay for certain maintal disorders. The therapist MUST diagnose you and submit that diagnosis to your insurance company. This diagnosis is then part of your insurance record. This may affect your insurance in the future.

We offer low enough rates to make it affordable for long-term success and, by not going through insurance, we don't have to convince administrators that you are "sick" enough for more sessions. This means you and your therapist decide how long you want to work.
