FAQs

Why do you operate as a private-pay practice?

Choosing to work outside of the insurance system ensures a high level of confidentiality, autonomy, and clinical freedom.

Privacy: Insurance companies require a clinical diagnosis and often have the right to audit your treatment records. In a private-pay model, your records remain entirely outside of corporate and medical databases.

Tailored Care: We are not restricted by insurance "session limits" or rigid criteria. Your treatment is driven by your goals—not by what a third party is willing to cover.

What are the benefits of the PSYPACT authorization?

As a PSYPACT-authorized psychologist, Dr. Cohn is legally permitted to provide telepsychology services to clients located in over 39 participating states. This is ideal for professionals who travel frequently or relocate seasonally. You can maintain a consistent therapeutic relationship regardless of where your business or personal life takes you.

I am a high-profile/high-visibility professional. How is my privacy handled?

Discretion is the cornerstone of this practice. We utilize HIPAA-compliant, encrypted telehealth platforms and secure administrative systems. Because we do not interface with insurance companies, the circle of "who knows" is kept to the absolute minimum.

Can I still use my insurance benefits if I choose?

While Dr. Cohn is an out-of-network provider, many clients with PPO plans are eligible for partial reimbursement. Upon request, we can provide a "superbill" (i.e., a detailed receipt of services) that you may submit to your insurance carrier for potential out-of-network benefits. We recommend contacting your provider to verify your "out-of-network outpatient mental health" coverage.

How is your approach different from "coaching"?

While coaching often focuses on specific tasks or short-term performance, Dr. Cohn’s work as a Licensed Clinical Psychologist goes a bit deeper. We examine the underlying psychological architecture—patterns of behavior, early relationship dynamics, and identity—that drive your decision-making. This leads to profound, sustainable shifts rather than temporary adjustments.

What is the investment for a session?

The fee is $250 per 45-minute session, payable at the time of service via a secure portal.

How do I know if we are a "good fit"?

Successful therapy is built on a strong professional alliance. Dr. Cohn offers a brief initial consultation to discuss your objectives and ensure that his expertise aligns with your needs. This practice is best suited for stable, self-directed adults who are looking for a rigorous, insight-oriented partnership.
