Do You Accept Insurance?
Our practice understands that insurance can be a large consideration for many of our clients. Because of this we aim to make the process as seamless as possible.
Like most private practices, we accept all insurance plans as out-of-network providers.
We submit claims on our clients behalf in order to make the reimbursement process simpler. In our experience, most clients with out of network benefits receive between 60% - 80% of the cost of their sessions, after their deductible is met.
How is Reimbursement handled?
Submitting Claims
As a courtesy, our practice submit your claims and needed medical information to your insurance company in order to make your reimbursement process simpler.
Reimbursement
Your insurance carrier will process your claim, just like they would for a medical claim.
If they have any questions about authorization of services, please feel free to have them contact your therapist here directly.
What other information should I know?
The first step is to contact the Member Services phone number on the back of your health insurance card. Ask your insurance representative the below questions to understand your out-of-network mental health coverage and out of pocket costs.
Do I have out-of-network outpatient mental health coverage?
What is my out-of-network deductible?
What percentage of outpatient psychotherapy sessions are covered per session?
How many outpatient therapy sessions are allowed per calendar year?
What is the process for submitting claims?
Our office will provide you with monthly invoices that will include all of the necessary information for your claims to be processed.
How do i know if I need therapy?
People don’t come to therapy because they have problems - everyone has problems. People come to therapy because they identify a challenge and want to make authentic changes to better their experience of life. Sometimes individuals see the same issues resurface over and over in different forms in their lives and they're unsure why. In everyday life these problems are addressed superficially without dealing with their roots, which is why they may continue despite our best efforts.
In therapy problematic patterns are explored in depth in order to address the underlying causes and thus begin to change the driving forces beneath them. In other words, therapy goes beyond the symptoms and targets the actual issues at hand. We use a unique combination of several research proven theories, tailored to each individual, which together can help you transform your life.
Benefits of therapy
So many of us have past wounds that prevent us from living the life we truly want. Sometimes it seems easier to ignore pain and hope it will go away, but without tackling old hurts head on, we can remain chained to the past and unable to move forward. Therapy enables individuals to work through the *why* of their current experiences to find the root of the problem.
What is the average turnaround time for claims processing and/or payment?
Typically, insurance companies are able to send payment within 30 days of receiving your claim form.
Who is responsible for submitting claims to get reimbursement?
The client is responsible for giving their provider up to date insurance coverage information. We submit your receipts and needed medical information to your insurance company in order to make your reimbursement process simpler. In our experience, most clients with out of network benefits receive between 50% - 80% of the cost of their sessions, after the deductible is met.
How long are sessions?
Individual sessions are held for 45 minutes.
How often are sessions?
Typically, at the beginning of treatment it is recommended that you meet with your therapist at least once weekly.
How does payment work?
Payment is due in full at the time of session.
