We are trained to provide therapy for many different circumstances such as depression, anxiety, or relational challenges. And, we believe that finances should not be a barrier to accessing mental health treatment. For that reason, we are in network and can accept many insurance plans. We are happy to help verify your mental health benefits prior to your first appointment, if requested. For your convenience, Associates in Psychotherapy is in-network for many insurance plans and we submit claims for them. For any out of network plans, we are happy to provide you with documentation to help you obtain reimbursement.

Treatment sessions range from 20-60 minutes depending on your clinical needs. Payment is due at time services are rendered. Payment schedules for unusual hardship are available upon request. Once an appointment is scheduled, clients are expected to pay for it unless they provide 24-hour advance notice. There may be exceptions to this rule if there are unique circumstances beyond one’s control which are mutually agreed upon by therapist and client.
If you have an insurance policy, it will probably cover some mental health services. We will directly bill insurance carriers if we are in network with your plan. If not, we will collect payment for rendered services and then provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement. We will assist you in any way we can so you receive the benefits to which you are entitled; however, you are responsible for payment of our fees.
