One of the top 5 questions that we get when individuals call into our practice revolve around fees.  Following closely behind at times is "Do you take my insurance?"  And I get it.  If insurance and the healthcare industry was like it was 20 years ago that would be a question I would be asking as well in trying to find a provider.  But, a lot has changed in 20 years and the insurance world is ever changing. There are things like Deductibles, Coinsurance, In and Out of Network Providers and Tele-therapy.

 

Sad thing is that these complexities tend to turn people away from getting the much needed help they desire within the Mental Health world. And, understandably so! But, it doesn't have to be this complex.  We hold the belief that counseling should be about choosing the right fit for your needs, as counseling is a personal journey and everyone's needs are unique.  Clients choose to work with us because they feel we are the right fit for their particular situation and want someone that can relate to their situation and/or specializes in what they are going through.

Insurance

We are considered a out-of-network provider in the insurance world.  In simple terms, being an out-of-network provider means we're not directly affiliated with any insurance companies. This means your insurance coverage may vary depending on your specific health plan.  However, some of our clients have been pleasantly surprised, paying only $31 for a session, with their insurance covering the rest. Others may need to meet their deductible first. Your reimbursement really depends on your insurance carrier and the plan you have.

 

Choosing an out-of-network provider can be necessary, sensible, or even recommended depending on your situation. For instance, you might choose us for specialized care, if we're conveniently located, if you prefer our services, or if we've built a strong therapeutic bond. 

 

However, if you are wanting to use your in-network benefits it would be best to contact your insurance company directly in order to request the referral list of providers in-network with your insurance plan.  Calling around just to find a therapist in-network with your insurance can become frustrating.
