Fees and Insurance
We view therapy as an investment; an investment in yourself, your relationships, and your future. It's a commitment that you are ready for things to get better. You are ready to accept that things are not getting better by doing what you've been doing and it's time for a change.

IMPORTANT NOTES REGARDING INSURANCE
It’s important for you to understand that in order for insurance companies to pay for mental health therapy, a mental health diagnosis is required. For some clients, this is appropriate as their difficulties and struggles are creating significant distress or impairment of personal functioning and that distress and impairment meet the criteria for a specific diagnosis. For some clients, however, their level of distress or impairment does not meet the full criteria for a specific diagnosis even though they are having a difficult time adjusting to changes in their lives. We will provide a diagnosis when appropriate to do so and will share this with you.
It is then up to you to decide if you would like to work with your insurance company to utilize any mental health benefits that may be available to you. As a courtesy to you, if you wish to utilize your insurance benefits, we are happy to verify your benefits to tell you what portion, if any, may be covered by your health insurance provider.
If you are planning to use insurance in which we are out-of-network, you will be expected to pay for each session up-front and we will provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. If your plan provides any coverage for out-of-network providers, you will receive a check directly from your insurance company.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your health care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have certain types of health care coverage or who are not using certain types of health care coverage an estimate of their bill for health care items and services before those items or services are provided.
• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any healthcare items or services upon request or when scheduling such items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
• If you schedule a health care item or service at least 3 business days in advance, make sure your health care provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 1 business day after scheduling. If you schedule a healthcare item or service at least 10 business days in advance, make sure your healthcare provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 3 business days after scheduling. You can also ask any healthcare provider or facility for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you do, make sure the health care provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 3 business days after you ask.
• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more for any provider or facility than your Good Faith Estimate from that provider or facility, you can dispute the bill.
• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate and the bill.
