Avital Soep

Dr. Avital Soep is a licensed clinical psychologist in the state of New York. Avital received her doctorate in School-Clinical Child Psychology from Yeshiva University, Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology.

Prior to attending Ferkauf, she graduated Summa Cum Laude with a B.A. in psychology from Yeshiva University, Stern College for Women. Throughout her graduate training, Avital has worked with children, adolescents, and adults in various settings, including schools, outpatient clinics, inpatient hospitals, and private practice.

Dr. Soep is trained and experienced in providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to target a wide range of presenting problems, including depression, social anxiety, generalized anxiety, ADHD, borderline personality disorder, and posttraumatic stress disorder.

Avital is passionate about the implementation and dissemination of evidence-based interventions, making the highest quality of mental health care accessible for all. A primary goal of Dr. Soep is to help remove the stigma surrounding mental health care by introducing emotion-focused learning and skills-based work to children from a young age in an engaging and effective manner.

Avital strongly believes in the benefits of self-care, and when she is not practicing clinical psychology, she enjoys listening to country music, playing guitar, and spending time with her family.

FAQs

What can Nirvana do for me?

We handle your mental health insurance electronically and file your claims for free. We also track the status of your claims and ensure they are processed correctly so you don’t have to worry about paperwork or making frustrating phone calls.

How does Nirvana’s mental health billing service work?

We work with your therapist to obtain all the information needed to file your claims. Then we file them electronically each week.

What do I need to do for Nirvana’s service to work for me?

You only need to make sure we have your  most updated insurance information. You don’t need to do anything else!

Can I check how much I will be reimbursed for therapy?

Nirvana has a free tool called the Peace of Mind Coverage Calculator, which estimates your reimbursement amount at the start of the calendar year, when your deductible has been met, and when your out-of-pocket maximum has been reached. You only need to enter the name of the therapist you’d like to see, along with your name, date of birth, and insurance information.

Once I start therapy, when will I be reimbursed?

Once you have met your deductible, your reimbursement will be mailed to you about 4-6 weeks from the date of your first eligible claim. In some cases, this process can take as long as 90 days.

Where will my reimbursement be sent?

Your reimbursement will be mailed to the address on file with your therapist and your insurer. We recommend verifying your address directly with your insurer.

How will I receive my reimbursement?

You will receive your reimbursement by check. Some insurers combine payments for multiple sessions and others send one check per session.

Can I track the progress of my claims as you process them?

Yes! We offer a free product called the Client Portal, which allows you to do exactly that. You may be invited by your therapist, but you can independently register here. With the client portal, you can view the exact status of your claims and reimbursements.

I have a general question. Can I contact you?

We’re glad to answer any questions you have. Email us at help@meetnirvana.com and someone from our Help Desk will reach out to you.
