Insurance
Depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for services to be covered in full or in part. Please contact your insurance provider to verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services.
I’d recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:
- Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?
- Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?
- Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
- Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?

Private Pay Option
The most popular form of payment in the Reviving Wellness Counseling practice is self-pay. When an individual pays for therapy through self-pay opposed to utilizing insurance, both confidentiality and treatment remain between you and Reviving Wellness Counseling. Treatment decisions, length of therapy, confidentiality and many other important decisions are always kept between you and your therapist. However, when utilizing health insurance to pay for therapy you are relinquishing confidentiality, treatment decisions, length of therapy and other pertinent decisions to your insurance company.
When using insurance for mental health services, a diagnosis is required in order for them to provide reimbursement for the service. This diagnosis becomes a permanent part of your medical record and will potentially be made available to future insurance companies. Often, people prefer to seek counseling for relationship issues, difficulty with transitions, or simply general support in coping with life. These are not pathological issues and should not require a medical diagnosis, as demanded by health insurance companies.
Many people today have high deductible insurance plans. With plans that require thousands of dollars up front before your insurance benefits kick in, you are already paying out of pocket for your services.
