Hope Counseling and Wellness is a private-pay practice. This allows therapy to remain personalized, consistent, and focused on your needs rather than insurance requirements.

The session fee is $150 per 50-minute session, due at the time of service.

Many clients choose private-pay therapy because it offers greater flexibility, privacy, and depth of care. Without insurance limitations, therapy can move at a pace that supports meaningful and lasting change rather than being constrained by diagnosis-driven requirements or session limits.

Out-of-Network Insurance Benefits

While insurance is not accepted directly, clients who have out-of-network benefits may choose to use those benefits. I partner with a service called Thrizer, which assists clients with submitting claims and tracking reimbursement from their insurance company.

Here is how it works:

• You pay the full session fee at the time of your appointment
• Thrizer submits claims on your behalf
• Any reimbursement issued by your insurance company is sent directly to you, based on your plan’s out-of-network benefits

Many clients appreciate this option because it allows them to use their benefits while maintaining the flexibility and integrity of private-pay therapy.

Frequency of Sessions

For concerns related to anxiety, depression, or trauma, therapy typically begins with weekly sessions. Consistency helps build emotional safety, strengthen the therapeutic relationship, and support effective progress. Session frequency may be adjusted over time as goals are met and symptoms improve.

Important Notes

• Payment is due at the time of service
• Insurance does not reimburse for missed or late-cancelled appointments
• A 24-hour notice is required for cancellations or rescheduling. The full session fee is charged for late cancellations and no-shows.

If you have questions about fees, private pay, or out-of-network benefits, I am happy to discuss these during your consultation.
