Fees/Insurance

Cash Rates

My cash rates for couples and individual sessions are below. Individual sessions are commonly 55 minutes while couples benefit most from 75 or 90 minute sessions.

55-min session: $160

75-min session: $200

90-min session: $240

Payment can be made by check, cash, debit, credit, or Health Savings Account (HSA) cards. We can keep your card on file and, with your authorization, run the card after each session

Insurance

I can use cash pay or insurance for individual and family counseling. All couples sessions are cash pay. I am currently an in-network provider with several insurance companies, but I only use insurance for individual and family counseling because insurance does not cover couples counseling. Family counseling is defined as individual counseling in which there is a medical need for family or partner involvement and is often covered by insurance. Unfortunately, couples counseling is not covered under this definition.

Other Payment Information

Log into your Patient Portal on Simple Practice. For payment, billing, and insurance questions, feel free to contact me at lizza@fpcounseling.net.

Please note that if you cannot make it to a session, cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance to avoid paying the $75 late cancellation or no-show fee for the missed session. Insurance companies DO NOT pay for missed sessions, so the $75 fee is your responsibility.

Out-Of-Network Benefits

If you are in network with an insurance plan that I am not, services may still be covered in part by your insurance or employee benefit plan. In this instance I recommend you call your insurance plan to determine if you have Out of Network benefits.

You will want to follow up with insurance to find out:

1. What percentage of the cost of service is your responsibility

2. Do you have to pay down your deductible before you can utilize your Out-of-Network benefit. 

The No Surprises Act

In compliance with the No Surprises Act that goes into effect January 1, 2022, all healthcare providers are required to notify clients of their Fedeal rights and protections against “surprise billing.” Please read this document to learn about your federally protected rights to receive a notification when services are rendered by an out-of-network provider, if a client is uninsured, or if a client elects not to use their insurance.
