Frequently Asked Questions

Do you accept health insurance?

YES! Currently in-network with Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Cigna PPO, Aetna, United Healthcare and Connecticare/Emblem Health. Most insurance covers nutrition coverage! Please verify your insurance benefits PRIOR to your appointment to understand your coverage.

What if my insurance does not have a lot of nutrition coverage?

If you only have a small amount of coverage, we’ll make the most out of our time together and I’ll set you up for success at home as best I can! We also offer a 3-Month Support Plan with lite support via messaging. It’s a great option for existing clients who run out of coverage, but still want our help.

What happens if you do not participate with my insurance?

We highly recommend you check with your insurance company to see if they will cover nutrition services from out-of-network providers prior to your visit. You are responsible for payment at the time of service. A superbill can be given at the end of your visit. You can then submit the superbill to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.

What is the location of in-person visits?

Newtown and Darien, CT.

Can I use my insurance for telehealth services?

Currently (2026) due to the pandemic most insurances are covering for telehealth services. Therefore, when you schedule your visit you will be directed towards the next steps to setting up properly for your telehealth session. However, it is possible your insurance plan may impose a cost-share for you to use this service. Therefore, please call your insurance company to confirm your telehealth coverage PRIOR to scheduling your visit. 

Do you see patients out of state*?

Yes, telehealth services are available to those in the United States. Please verify your teleheath insurance coverage if we participate with your insurance. Superbills can also be provided if out-of-network. HSA/FSA cards and credit cards are accepted.
*Please note we do follow licensure rules so patients in certain states may be exempt from seeing us.
