Private pay, insurance, cancellation
Private Pay
Sessions are approximately 55 minutes, and the $150 fee is due at the time of service.
Insurance
You can use insurance benefits from many providers to pay for therapy services.
I will connect you with the billing department at Next Adventure Counseling and Consulting to clarify your insurance coverage when you book your appointment with me.
Insurance companies require a diagnosis, so we will determine this so you can use your benefits to pay for services.
Cancellation Policy
Our time is valuable, so we should commit to keeping our appointments. If you cancel or miss your appointment with less than a 24-hour notice, you will be charged the $90 cancellation fee, and if I cancel with less than a 24-hour notice, I will credit you $90 toward your next appointment.
