This model ensures that your treatment is designed to help you achieve your goals and that your needs always come first.

Why Choose an Out-of-Network Provider?

Making the decision to invest in your mental health is a powerful step. Choosing an out-of-network provider can offer significant advantages in your therapeutic journey.

• Goal-Oriented Treatment: Our evidence-based approach ensures that therapy is focused and effective. Together, we will establish a clear plan to help you achieve your goals, rather than following a path dictated by an insurance company.
• Support with Reimbursement: We provide you with all the detailed documentation needed to file claims with your insurance provider, making the reimbursement process as smooth as possible for you.
• Invest in Your Well-Being: Your mental and emotional health is invaluable. Choosing the right therapist for your journey is an investment in yourself, your relationships, and your future. Contact us to learn more.

Coordinated Care for Your Well-Being

Your mental health is connected to your overall health. We believe in a collaborative approach to care.

If you are working with a psychiatrist or other medical provider, we are happy to coordinate with them to ensure your treatment is aligned and comprehensive. With your written consent, we can consult with your doctor regarding medication management and treatment planning. If you need a referral for medication, we can provide recommendations for trusted psychiatrists in the community.

Comparing In-Network and Out-of-Network Providers

Frequently Asked Questions

What does “out-of-network” mean and why do you operate this way?

“Out-of-network” simply means we do not have a direct contract with insurance companies. We chose this model to put you first. It allows us the freedom to create a personalized therapy plan tailored to your specific needs and goals, without the limitations often imposed by insurance providers. This ensures the quality of your care is our top priority.

Will my insurance still cover some of the cost?

Yes, it’s very likely. Most PPO, POS, or HDHP insurance plans offer out-of-network benefits that can reimburse you for a significant portion of your therapy costs—often between 50-80%.
