Financial

Understanding the cost of therapy is an important consideration when deciding to seek professional help. Therapy is an investment in your mental and emotional well-being, and the cost can vary depending on factors like the therapist's expertise, location, session length, and the type of therapy offered. While therapy may seem expensive, many clients find that the benefits far outweigh the financial cost, as it can lead to improved relationships, better coping strategies, and long-term mental health improvement.

Ultimately, therapy can offer life-changing support and growth, helping you navigate challenges, build resilience, and improve your overall quality of life.

We Accept Insurance

We accept a variety of insurance plans to make therapy more accessible. Currently, we accept United Healthcare, Anthem, and IU Health insurance for therapy sessions. This allows you to receive the support you need while utilizing your insurance benefits. Please contact us or your insurance provider to verify coverage details, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions about billing or insurance-related matters. Our goal is to make therapy as affordable and accessible as possible, so you can focus on your healing and personal growth.

Deductible

A deductible is the amount of money you must pay out-of-pocket for healthcare services before your insurance begins to cover the costs. Deductibles typically reset annually, and they may vary depending on your insurance plan

Co-Pay

A co-pay is a fixed amount you pay for a healthcare service at the time of your visit, such as a therapy session. For example, if your insurance plan has a $25 co-pay for mental health services, you would pay that amount directly to the therapist, and your insurance would cover the rest of the session’s cost. Co-pays are typically lower than deductibles or co-insurance and are required regardless of whether you've met your deductible

In-Network

"In-network" refers to healthcare providers or facilities that are part of your insurance company's preferred network. When you see an in-network provider, your insurance covers a larger portion of the cost, and you typically pay lower out-of-pocket expenses. In-network providers have agreed to accept specific rates set by your insurance plan, making it more affordable for you compared to out-of-network providers.

Super Bill

Co-Insurance

Co-insurance is the percentage of healthcare costs you are responsible for paying after you’ve met your deductible. For example, if your insurance plan has an 80/20 co-insurance split, your insurance will cover 80% of the cost of a therapy session, and you will pay the remaining 20%. 

Out-of-Pocket Maximum

An out-of-pocket maximum is the most you’ll have to pay for covered healthcare services in a plan year. Once you reach this limit, your insurance will cover 100% of the costs for the rest of the year. The out-of-pocket maximum includes deductibles, co-pays, and co-insurance, but not monthly premiums. This cap helps protect you from high medical expenses by limiting how much you pay out of your own pocket.

Out-of-Network

"Out-of-network" refers to healthcare providers or facilities that do not have a contract with your insurance company. If you see an out-of-network provider, your insurance may cover less of the cost, and you may have to pay higher out-of-pocket expenses. Depending on your plan, you might also need to pay the full cost upfront and seek reimbursement from your insurance.

A super bill is an itemized document provided by a healthcare provider that outlines the services you received during a visit, along with associated costs, diagnosis codes, and procedure codes. You can submit a super bill to your insurance company for reimbursement if your provider is out-of-network or if you're paying out-of-pocket. It typically includes all the necessary information your insurer needs to process a claim

Good Faith Estimate

Under the No Surprises Act (H.R. 133 - effective January 1, 2022), health care providers need to give patients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. A Good Faith Estimate is for your awareness only. It is not a contract for services.

To learn more about Good Faith Estimates, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.

This Good Faith Estimate shows the costs of items and services that are reasonably expected for your health care needs for an item or service. The estimate is based on information known at the time the estimate was created. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes costs related to therapy or psychological assessment. We will provide you a Good Faith Estimate at the beginning of your time with us, and with any updates at the beginning of the calendar year (January 1). Further, the Good Faith Estimate does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. You could be charged more if complications or special circumstances occur.

The timeline for receiving a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) is as follows:

  • If your first appointment is scheduled within three business days, you’ll receive the GFE within one business day.

  • If your first appointment is scheduled within ten business days, you’ll receive the GFE within three business days.

  • If you request a good faith estimate (without scheduling the service), you’ll receive the GFE no later than three business days after the date of the request.
