Out of Network Reimbursement
At this time, we do not provide in-network insurance coverage. We can provide a Superbill to clients who wish to submit it to their insurance for reimbursement.
A Superbill is a receipt that contains my business and tax information, as well as your session and billing information.
Many insurance plans will reimburse a percentage of your bill for out of network providers. If yours does, you may submit this Superbill to your insurance for reimbursement.
*Note: Please call your insurance company and inquire about out of network benefits in advance, as not all insurance companies offer this.
*Note: Superbills do contain a diagnosis, so if you wish to keep that information private, submitting a Superbill will not be in your best interest.
Self Pay vs. Insurance
Benefits of Insurance
Your co-pay may be cheaper than the full session fee if your therapist is paneled (in-network) with your insurance company.
Benefits of Self Pay
No diagnosis is required for self-pay clients.
While a diagnosis for some can be beneficial, for others it could have its consequences. It could compromise one’s ability to obtain life, health, or disability insurance.
No limits placed on treatment.
Your goals and treatment will be determined by you and the clinician as a self-pay client. When going through insurance, our choices and treatment options may be limited as insurance determines for us what is considered “medically necessary”. Such limitations may include number and length of sessions, what diagnoses they will cover, and treatment types. These limitations do not always align with your treatment recommendations and inhibits your progress.
You will have complete privacy.
When using insurance, your information (diagnosis, nature of issues seeking counseling, treatment goals, how long the issue has persisted) is all shared with your insurance, anyone involved in processing and handling the claims, and future employers.
You can receive the specialized treatment you are seeking.
Your ideal therapist may not be paneled with your particular insurance, however it will be more beneficial to your mental health to receive short-term treatment and pay out-of-pocket, than to use insurance, long-term, with a provider that is not trained in your particular concern.
