I am out-of-network with any other insurance. I can provide a superbill for out-of-network insurance reimbursement, except for any type of Medicare or Medicaid insurance plan. Please note: I cannot see anyone out of pocket with Medicare. I also cannot see anyone who has Medicare or Medicaid as a secondary insurance at this time.
A note about couples/marriage counseling….
Insurance companies sometimes do not cover couples counseling, as they do not consider relationship issues as “medically necessary” for covering services (i.e. communication issues, conflict resolution issues, or intimacy issues). Even if your insurance does allow for couples counseling, it will only cover couples counseling if it is to help the identified client resolve mental health issues. I know that really sucks, and I wish this wasn’t the case.
If you and your partner don’t have couples counseling benefits through your insurance or don’t meet “medical necessity” for insurance to cover couples counseling, please don’t panic! There are alternative payment methods we can discuss.
