Payment
The cost for one session is $75-$300.
The reason for the range is everyone is in a different financial position. Some people cannot afford very much while others can afford more.
I do not need to see any documentation on your income. You and your family can discuss and let me know what you are able to pay within the range.Â
If everyone pays $75, I will have to raise the lower rate so please pay accurately within the range.
Insurance
At this time we do not accept payment from insurance. We will give what is called a superbill. This is a type of receipt that you can submit to your insurance to get reimbursed. It has more criteria than just the payment so they can reimburse you if your plan covers it. We are able to submit the superbill for you to some insurance companies.
There are a few reasons we do not take direct payments from insurance companies. Over the first year of this practice existing, we spent a great deal of time in dealing with insurance companies and that took away from time we could be providing patient care. Also, insurance companies sometimes won't get back to us for months. If a service is denied than the patient is stuck with a large bill which I do not want for you. Also, insurances require a diagnosis and there are times when a diagnosis is not the most conducive to the patient. By providing the superbill it allows you to be in control of the payment process.
You can make a decision about the payment type at the end of the intake session. If your financial situation changes during counseling, we can adjust the payment at that time whether more or less as long as it stays in the range.
The purpose of these policies are to empower you to make the decisions that work best in your life. These policies may change depending upon the needs of the business. Clients will be informed of the change before it is implemented for future appointments.
