Fees & Insurance

Fees & Insurance

Understanding counseling, insurance, and payment can be confusing. The quality of your care is just as important as affordability and access to integrative health care options. Payment for our services is due at the time of service. We accept all major credit cards and debit cards, but we do not accept cash.

Benefits of Utilizing Insurance:

Many clients find utilizing insurance for services an affordable and convenient option. This can allow clients to pace their costs with their needs. We participate with a variety of major insurance carriers. Participation with various insurance plans vary by clinician. We do our best to match your needs and availability with a clinician who also is able to participate with your insurance. We provide courtesy insurance eligibility checks at the time you schedule an appointment. Copayments, coinsurance and deductible amounts are initial estimates.

We also provide courtesy billing services. We will file the necessary claim forms to all insurance companies, even if we are not a participating provider. Final determination of your responsibility for services is determined once claims are processed by your insurer. As a result, please remember that we cannot guarantee payment for your services by your insurance company. Any remaining amount not covered by your insurance is due upon receipt of the statement.

We can also process Out-of-Network statements for clinicians you may want to work, but they do not participate with your insurer.

* Insurance can only be used for traditional counseling services. Reiki, massage therapy, and other services are self- pay services. Let us know if you are open to exploring whole-body wellness plan options.

Benefits of Self-Pay Options:

The issues leading you to counseling or therapy may be complex and based on multiple underlying causes. When you self-pay for therapy, the duration of treatment is led solely by your individual needs and not the limitations of your insurance company. You and your therapist are free to explore and work through any underlying causes, making symptoms less likely to return after therapy has ended.

In order to receive coverage for most mental health and emotional health issues, your insurance typically requires you to receive a diagnosis. This diagnosis becomes a part of your medical health record. Private pay clients can receive services without having a diagnosed mental health condition on their medical record.

You may have a deductible that needs to be met before the insurance company will cover some of the session.

Sliding scale openings may be available. Please check with our office to get more information regarding the application process.

We understand that receiving counseling or therapy is a very important and selective process. If at any time, a referred therapist is not a good fit, we will do our best to find a fit for your needs.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item.
  • You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
  • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
  • Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
