Insurance & Payment

Therapy is an investment in yourself—like planting seeds and tending your own thriving garden, growth takes care, patience, and support from the right environment. We genuinely believe your well-being is worth nurturing, and yes, you’re absolutely worth the effort. We’ve worked to make therapy as accessible as possible, offering a variety of payment and insurance options to fit different needs, while still keeping things sustainable for our small ecosystem. However you choose to pay, know that you’re not just booking an appointment—you’re tending to yourself, creating space for renewal and growth.

Out-of-Network Insurance Plans

Don’t see your insurance plan listed? Many insurances provide out-of-network benefits. We will provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance plan for reimbursement. Reimbursement rates are dependent on your insurance plan and coverage, and any such questions must be directed to your insurance directly.

Payment of our full rate ($270 for Intake; $245 for 55-min therapy sessions) is due at the start of each session. We accept credit cards, including HSA and FSA.

*IMPORTANT NOTE FOR CLIENTS WITH MEDICAID PLANS

Because our practice is not credentialed, nor are we pursing credentialing with Medicaid, we are unable to bill Medicaid for services. Medicaid rules also restrict us from billing clients directly for otherwise Medicaid-covered services, as such, we are unable to see clients with active Medicaid coverage, including when it is secondary insurance.

Payment Methods

A current credit, debit, or HSA card is required to be kept on file for all clients. Session and/or any cancellation/no show fees will be charged at the time of service.

CANCELLATION/NO SHOW POLICY

Consistency helps therapy work. I reserve your regular weekly time with care, and I’m glad to do the same for you week after week. Life happens, and plans shift—that’s totally okay. Here’s how we handle rescheduling and cancellations in a way that respects both your time and mine.

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • You’ll have your designated appointment time each week, held just for you.

  • If life throws a curveball and you can’t make it to your session, we can often reschedule for another time the same week, depending on both of our schedules. Out of respect for both our time, please let us know at least 48 hours in advance whenever possible.

  • Sessions will be considered a cancellation whenever a client is 15 minutes or more late to their designated appointment time.

  • Cancellations and reschedules made with less than 48 hours’ notice will be charged a fee of $150. The fee will be charged to the card on file on the day of the canceled or missed appointment

  • The first time a late cancellation occurs, we’ll waive the fee as a courtesy. This courtesy resets each calendar year.

INSURANCE NOTE: Please be aware that insurance plans do not reimburse late cancellations or missed appointments.

RECURRING CANCELLATIONS: We will not hold designated appointment times after three consecutive missed appointments, a pattern of missed appointments, or two missed intake appointments (will reschedule intake appointment once as a courtesy).

NO SURPRISES ACT

As part of the Federal No Surprises Act, individuals who use self-pay for services are entitled to a Good Faith Estimate. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. ​

  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. 

  • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

  • Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.

  • Please see No Surprises Act Client Rights for more information. 

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
