Fees, Insurance, and Billing
Fee Structure
At TCI, we provide a Sliding Scale fee structure. Sliding scale refers to a more affordable, often times negotiated hourly rate for therapy sessions using a trained, supervised mental health professional who is working towards full licensure.
We understand that therapy is a financial commitment, but we pride ourselves on providing fairly priced therapy to everyone who desires.
Insurance
We do not participate with any insurance panels & considered an out-of-network provider.
Superbill
We can provide clients a billing statement at the end of each month to be submitted for reimbursement for clients with PPO, HSA, or other flexible benefits. I encourage all my clients to speak with their insurance company about reimbursement for some portion of therapy.
I accept the following forms of payment: cash, check, Visa, Mastercard, HSA cards
Policies
Cancellation Policy
Failure to attend your scheduled therapy appointment without at least 24 hours advanced notice will result in the full session being billed
Confidentiality and Privacy Policy
The law protects the relationship between a client & psychotherapist, & information cannot be disclosed without written permission. we will talk more about this in our sessions.
Exceptions include:
-
suspected child abuse, dependent adult or elder abuse, which I am required by law to report to the appropriate authorities immediately.
-
a client is threatening serious bodily harm to another person/s, I must notify the police & inform the intended victim.
-
if a client intends to harm him or herself, I will make every effort to enlist their cooperation in ensuring their safety. If they do not cooperate, I will take further measures without their permission that are provided to me by law in order to ensure their safety
