We are a private pay practice, which means we are not in network with any insurance plans and payment is paid “out of pocket” at the time of the service.

We offer super bills which are receipts of your payments that you can submit to insurance for potential reimbursement or application towards your deductible.

We recommend calling the number on the back of your insurance card to see if your plan has out of network benefits for mental health.

Being a private pay practice provides flexibility and increased privacy for your treatment:

• Complete freedom to choose what treatment approaches we feel are appropriate.

• Doesn’t dictate/limit how often we are allowed to meet.

• Removes requirement to put a major mental health diagnosis in the chart that is permanent in the record.

• Increased privacy and confidentiality. This can be especially helpful with children who’s records are permanent.

Insurance does not panel with interns or associately licensed clinicians (LACs, LMSWs), leaving a smaller amount of clinicians who can take insurance (fully licensed - LPCs, LCSWs). This limits the amount of providers we can offer and slows down treatment, leading to waitlists and lack of access to care.

Because we work largely with children and young adults, it’s important that we can offer a variety of scheduling options and clinicians that are working towards their full licensure are often more flexible and open with providing evenings and weekends.

For those who are able to panel with insurance, the reimbursement rates are extremely low and difficult to sustain as a business or individual, leading to burnout, larger caseloads, less time to research and attend trainings, and often leads to providers leaving the field, or closures of private practices.

Our hope is that by not having treatment and care dictating and managed by insurance, we can have greater flexibility and autonomy, be more accessible and available, and provide consistent and high quality care tailored to your needs.

Please reach out if you would like help finding someone in network with your insurance plan and we will do our best to support you!

Our licensed team accepts ESA funding: Alex (OT) and Krista, Bria, Maya, and Rachel (Therapists).

Our Clinical Interns are not licensed and therefore cannot accept ESA funding.

Each clinician on our team holds a limited number of reduced fee slots to try and keep therapy as accessible as possible.

Please feel free to ask about any openings with our team.

We also encourage working with one of our clinical interns who’s fees are lower.

Being out of network provides flexibility for your treatment:

Complete freedom to choose what treatment approaches we feel are appropriate.

Doesn’t dictate/limit how often we are allowed to meet.

Removes requirement to put a mental health diagnosis in the chart that is permanent in the record.

Increased privacy and confidentiality. This can be especially helpful for children who have limited confidentiality.

For those who are able to panel with insurance, the reimbursement for providers is low and the rates don’t get assessed to meet the cost of living changes, leaving unsustainable systems for care and difficulty to stay open as a business.

Our goal is to reduce burnout in our clinicians and the mental health field so that our therapists can provide higher quality care and maintain their availability to support the community.

We accepts HSA/FSA, debit/credit cards, checks and cash payments.

Card payments are run online through our electronic health record system called Simple Practice.

Payment is due on the day of service. Failure to pay will result in inability to schedule additional sessions until the outstanding fee is paid.
