Tierney Verderami, LMFT

Consultation

I offer a free 15-minute phone or video chat consultation so you can get a sense of whether we will be a good match. It is also an opportunity for me to decide whether or not I will be the best person to support you on your healing journey.

Reduced Fees

If you cannot afford my fee, please let me know because I do have a limited sliding scale or I can refer you to another therapist who may be better able to serve your needs.

Rates

This will be discussed during the initial appointment. A session is approximately 50 minutes.

Insurance

At this time, I do not accept insurance and I am considered an Out-of-Network provider. Some insurance companies will provide partial reimbursement for therapy services. I can provide all the necessary paperwork for my clients to be reimbursed by their insurance provider. Please call your insurance company to determine your coverage.

Telehealth

I am able to see clients located in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut via Telehealth.

Cancellation Policy

If you do not attend your scheduled appointment, and you have not notified me at least 24 hours in advance, you will be required to pay the full cost of the session.

Payment

Credit Card will be accepted for payment at the time of service.

Good Faith Estimate

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services.
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
