benefits of self pay
no diagnosis
If you choose not to use your insurance coverage, we aren’t required to give you a mental health diagnosis or a “label” that justifies why you need therapy or for how long. Additionally, a diagnosis becomes a permanent part of your medical record that can impact your future insurance policies and benefits. You are not defined by a diagnosis; you are a beautiful human being who deserves healing.
increased privacy
You have complete privacy and confidentiality. Your personal information is secured in our HIPAA compliant electronic health record system and third-party companies don’t have access to any of your information. This means that your insurance company can’t dictate what kind of care you receive, how often you can be seen or what would work best for you. You and your therapist decide what best fits your needs!
