Evan Newman

MHC-I

Evan was guided to the field of psychotherapy by a passion for the human mind and a personal, deep-rooted belief in the power of emotional healing and self-actualization to improve lives. Evan is earning a masters in Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University and he holds a bachelor’s in Literature from the University of Pittsburgh. Prior to entering the field, Evan worked for more than ten years at major news organizations, where he observed first hand the mental health challenges facing working professionals and the people of New York City. He felt called to help, and after 5 years as a counselor in community organizations, Evan committed full time to supporting the emotional and psychological wellbeing of others through the work that connects to his soul.

Evan understands how difficult it can be to ask for help, but also that we need not face alone the extraordinary trials of life. He believes growth and healing are possible when therapy reflects the true nature of each individual and therapeutic relationship. Evan strives to create a space where repair can begin, where resilience can be developed and peace found; a space where clients can shift away from damaging thought patterns and compassionately process their experience. Drawing from a range of therapeutic approaches, Evan works collaboratively with clients to help them cultivate inner awareness, relate harmoniously to the human condition, and learn practical skills for a healthier and more peaceful life.

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.
