Benefits of Private Pay
Therapy sessions are a very sacred space. Paying privately for services allows you to maintain a higher sense of privacy without needing to have a health insurance company involved (e.g., reviewing progress notes, treatment plans, diagnostic assessments, etc.). You also maintain much greater control over the sensitive details of your life.

PPO members may receive up to 80% payment reimbursement
Skip the waitlist & get an appointment within 1 week
Meet as often as you want/need without insurance limitations on the number of approved sessions
Bypass the diagnosis on your medical record that is required by insurance companies

Provided services may be tax deductible
Is coaching covered by insurance?
Coaching is a non-medical service and is not covered by health insurance.
Coaching may be reimbursed or covered by your employer
