  • As a clinical therapist transitioning into independent private practice, I was definitely dealing with processes that I could not do alone. Lou made the credentialing and contracting process go as smoothly and seamlessly as possible. With Lou's guidance, skill, and persistence, I am now contracted with all of the major payers and my practice is nearly full! For any new private practitioner, I would recommend partnering with Lou for any and all credentialing and billing needs.

  • Lou has been an invaluable asset to my independent private practice. I hired her for the credentialing and contracting process and her commitment and steadfast loyalty allowed me to become contracted with all major insurance companies. She does my billing for all clients which has allowed me to focus on my practice and clients without the additional stressors of billing. She is punctual and timely in responding to any questions or needs I have had. She has what is takes to get the job done and is an AMAZING person!!

  • "Being a clinical therapist is so rewarding and challenging. It is rewarding to work with the clients and challenging to deal with insurances. Thankfully, I have Lou on my side! I have been working with her for several years in an agency setting and starting my own private practice. Lou is very educated on the process of credentialing, managing my billing in all capacities, and ensuring everything stays up to date with insurances. My practice is thriving and filled to capacity. Lou provides reasonable prices that are comparable to others if not beats them. Also, Lou will always have time for you! She makes sure you feel good throughout the entire process."
