🎉 Happy New Year!

As we begin 2026, insurance coverage and benefits often change. To avoid any interruptions in your care:

  • Verify your insurance information and update any changes.
  • Review your benefits with your insurance carrier to confirm that Mental Health Services remain covered for 2026.

Important for January Appointments:

If your appointment is scheduled in January, please contact our office directly with any insurance changes or to confirm we have the correct information on file. Updating insurance in the portal may not reflect in time for billing.

For appointments in February or later, feel free to update your insurance in the portal at your convenience.

Please also be on the lookout for the NEW 2026 Consents that MUST be signed by all active patients.

Taking these steps now ensures a smooth start to the year and uninterrupted access to the care you deserve. Thank you for partnering with us in your wellness journey!
