FAQs
How often do I come to see you?
Frequency of our sessions will depend on your goals. If you have multiple health challenges, weekly visits the first month are often beneficial. Some diagnoses can be addressed in a few meetings. Binge eating disorder and diabetes benefit from regular follow-up for optimal support.
Do you accept my health insurance?
I am in In-Network Provider for BCBS (all plans except for Union plans), Empire NYSHIP, Oscar, Aetna, United Healthcare, Oxford (Freedom Plan) & Medicare (which only covers Diabetes and Non-Dialysis Kidney Disease).
You can verify your health benefits for MNT prior to our appointment. I will provide you with a Superbill to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have a plan not listed here or if I am Out of Network Provider.
If your insurance does not cover Nutrition Therapy, reasonable package rates are offered for 3 and 6 months. For teens & college students without insurance coverage Zoom meetings are available bi-monthly at minimal cost.
How are you different from Weight Watchers?
As a Nutritionist who embraces a non-diet model of Mindful Eating (based on science which shows that diets and restrictive eating result in eventual weight regain) you will not be required to count calories, points or weigh food. Health at Every Size, body kindness and acceptance are the ingredients of long-term health.
