Insurance

Psychotherapy is covered by most health insurance plans.  Some HMO's are very restrictive and will only cover a therapist who is on their provider list.  However, PPO plans will usually cover at least a portion of the fee for any licensed psychotherapist.  Following is a list of Austin Insurance companies that Jill Steward, LMSW-ACP has contracted with as a "preferred provider".

Most PPO insurance plans provide out-of-network benefits.
