We partner with Thrizer, a secure platform that helps eligible clients submit claims for possible reimbursement, making the process easier and more streamlined. Superbills are also available upon request.​You may also contact your insurance provider to understand your deductible, coinsurance, and out-of-network coverage.​Many clients value working with a therapist without third-party limitations or interference.​Benefits of Private PayFreedom to Choose Your ProviderYou are not restricted to insurance panels and can work with a counselor aligned with your goals and values. Enhanced PrivacyInsurance companies often require diagnoses, treatment details, and progress reports.
