LEAH LURYE, PsyD.
HOW DO I GET STARTED?
The first step it to set up an initial phone call to briefly discuss what you are looking for and to schedule a consultation. This consultation can last for 1-3 sessions during which we will discuss your treatment needs and determine how best to address them.
HOW LONG IS A TYPICAL THERAPY SESSION?
Individual sessions are 45 minutes and Family sessions are 60 minutes.
DO YOU OFFER TELE-THERAPY?
Yes, I am able to meet virtually or in-person at my office on the Upper West Side and Chelsea.
DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?
I do not currently accept insurance and am considered an 'Out-of-Network Provider'.
If you have out-of-network benefits, I will provide you with documentation to submit to your insurance in order to receive partial reimbursement. Typically, after an initial deductible, out-of-network benefits will reimburse 60-80% of the fee for psychotherapy.
​
HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE 'OUT-OF-NETWORK BENEFITS' ?
Call your insurance company and ask about your mental/behavioral health coverage. Some specific questions that you might want to ask:
-
Do I have coverage for mental/behavioral health services?
-
What is my deductible and has it been met?
-
How many sessions per calendar year does my plan cover?
-
How much do you cover for an out-of-network psychologist?
-
What is the coverage amount per session?
-
Is a primary care physician approval required?
