    Acceptance of specific insurance plans varies by provider.

    *TRICARE MEMBERS: We do NOT have any providers who currently are contracted with TRICARE plans. However, we may have limited ability to accept TRICARE on an 'out-of-network' basis. Contact your TRICARE plan directly to determine if you have out of network benefits and what your cost share may be. Currently, we do not have any providers who work with Military One Source.

    *** MEDICARE and MEDICARE ADVANTAGE plans: We have a very limited ability to accept Medicare plans.  For Medicare Advantage plans, the clinician must be both a Medicare provider and eligible to bill the Advantage plan.

    MEDICAID AND MEDICARE? Unfortunately, because of the laws regarding these plans, we are unable to work with people who have BOTH plans under the QMB program.

    ****Affordable Care Act (ACA/Obamacare) subsidized plans: We may be able to accept your plan, but you should check with your insurance plan to verify that we are able to see you.

    *****Auto Insurance or other insurance plans: We generally do not accept these plans. However, we may be able to see you if your healthplan is accepted by the clinician, your healthplan is aware of the other insurance claims, and is willing to pay for your treatment (under a process called subrogation).

    FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: We have a very limited capacity to provide financial assistance with the cost of care. If you need help paying for treatment, discuss this with your provider to see if it may be available for you.

  • EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PLAN (EAP) INFORMATION:

    Some people may choose to use an EAP plan to cover the initial sessions of counseling. It can result in savings for the client.  EAP's are only accepted by some of our clinicians, and the specific EAP plans accepted varies by clinician. 

    In order to use an EAP, it must be agreed upon with the clinician in advance.  We do not accept EAP plans for any sessions for which insurance has already been billed.  

  • PLEASE NOTE: As the pandemic has drawn on, increasing numbers of people are contacting us in need of help. We have been overwhelmed with the number of phone calls and emails requesting new appointments. We will do our best to respond as soon as possible.
