Do you accept insurance?

We are in network with most BCBS, Aetna, Cofinity, and Medicare plans. We are not a Medicaid provider.

We will verify your benefits prior to your first appointment.  We do encourage our clients to confirm their benefits as well directly with their insurance company.

Positive Self Center does not accept insurance for Couples Counseling.

What is a Good Faith Estimate?

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

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. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
  • Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
  • 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. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.

How often are the sessions?

Psychotherapy, or “talk” therapy, is most effective when done in a consistent manner, so most often psychotherapy sessions are once weekly or twice each month. That said, we are flexible and can personalize a schedule that works best for you.
