You are entitled to receive this “Good Faith Estimate” of what the charges could be per session for psychotherapy or dietary services provided to you. While it is not possible for a psychotherapist or dietitian to know, in advance, how many sessions may be necessary or appropriate for a given person, this form provides an estimate of the cost of services rendered that are provided per session. Your total cost of services will depend upon the number of sessions you attend, your individual circumstances, and the type and/or amount of services that are provided to you. This estimate is not a contract and does not obligate you to obtain any services from the provider(s) listed, nor does it include any services rendered to you that are not identified here.
This Good Faith Estimate is not intended to serve as a recommendation for treatment or a prediction that you may need to attend a specified number of visits. Most clients will attend one psychotherapy or dietary visit per week, but the frequency of psychotherapy or dietary visits that are appropriate in your case may be more or less than once per week, depending upon your needs. The number of visits that are appropriate in your case, and the estimated cost for those services, depends on your needs and what you agree to in consultation with your therapist. You are entitled to disagree with any recommendations made to you concerning your treatment and
you may discontinue treatment at any time.

At Lift Wellness Group, LLC, a client is not diagnosed until a client has been seen for an initial intake session, and after 3 follow-up sessions have been completed. Clients are not typically diagnosed until the therapist or dietitian believes a specific diagnosis to be accurate after a mental health evaluation with the client has been completed, and only if it is in the client's best interest to receive a mental health diagnosis. Instead of using diagnostic codes, Z codes are used which represent general areas of concerns to be addressed in therapy. Please speak to your therapist about this practice if you have any questions or concerns.
