INSURANCE

Each counselor is individually networked/paneled with different insurance companies. Refer to each counselor’s individual bio page for list of in-network insurances.

Considerations before using your insurance benefits:

  • A mental health diagnosis is required to use and bill insurance
  • The diagnosis will be included in your medical record
  • You may have to meet your deductible before your insurance will cover any part of the cost
  • Your insurance company may put a cap on the number of sessions that they will reimburse

Questions to ask your insurance when using in-network benefits:

  • What is the policy/coverage for an in-network provider?
  • Is there a deductible?
  • What is my co-payment or co-insurance?
  • How many sessions are authorized per year?
  • Do I need prior authorization?

Questions to ask your insurance when using out-of-network benefits:

  • What is the policy/coverage for an out-of-network provider?
