GETTING STARTED
What should I know about counseling?
Therapy is a unique process that succeeds on the power of the relationship between the therapist and clients. It should feel like it is an active partnership where you are safe and supported enough to make sense of challenging events and issues. Counseling is a place of dialogue and discovery where you are able to explore yourself and your relationships.

How much does it cost?
For cash paying clients and out-of-network clients:
$150 per 60-minute session.
Payment is due at the time of services. Cash, checks and all major credit/debit cards or flexible spending accounts accepted.
Can I use insurance?
Yes! For individual counseling, we accept the following insurance: Providence, Regence BCBS, Aetna, and PacificSource. If you are seeking couples counseling, our services are out-of-pocket. Relationship/Couples counseling is not eligible for coverage by most insurance companies.
If you are using insurance, you may be responsible for a co-pay at the time of service. Please contact your insurer to determine your co-pay amount and whether you have a yearly deductible that must be met before you may use your benefits.
For other insurance companies, you may be eligible for out-of-network benefits. Many insurers will reimburse a percentage of your out of pocket expenses. Please contact your insurance company to inquire about out-of-network benefits for mental health services. You will receive an invoice for direct reimbursement. If you are paying out of pocket for services, you will receive a Good Faith Estimate.
Please note:
Insurance that covers mental health services is an important benefit, but please be aware we have to provide a diagnosis to your insurance company. If you are uncomfortable with having a mental health diagnosis, please discuss this with your counselor. You have the option to pay for services out of pocket and not involve your insurance company.
