 If you have other insurance with
"out-of-network benefits", I will provide a statement that you can use for reimbursement.  Insurance companies often reimburse 40% - 80% of my fee, after a yearly deductible is met, with a limit of sessions per calendar year.  Check with your provider about your coverage.

You may also notify me via email at psychologist@drronnetteballard.com 24 hours in advance of the appointment you intend to cancel.
