Investment

Therapy is an investment in you, in your relationships and your well-being.  To ensure that we are able to focus on what is most helpful for our clients and their concerns, rather than insurance requirements (e.g., diagnosis, specific techniques in sessions, session and time limits), Dakota Therapy & Consulting is a primarily self-pay practice.  We are in-network with Aetna for clients physically located in Texas, for therapy appointments (this does not include assessments [e.g., ADHD, gender dysphoria]) through Headway.  If you wish to submit to an insurance other than Aetna for out-of-network benefits, we are happy to supply you with the documentation needed to file a claim for possible out-of-network reimbursement.  You are responsible for the fee at the time of your session.  We accept credit, debit, HSA/FSA (as well as cash and check if in-person services are being provided).  The fee for 50-minute therapy sessions is $190.  Additionally, if together determined as appropriate, 30-minute therapy appointments are available for $115.  The fee for an assessment and letter for gender-affirming medical and legal procedures is $380.

If you plan to use out-of-network benefits through your insurance company, please speak with them prior to scheduling a consultation with me. We would be happy to work with you, though respect your financial needs and understand that insurance coverage and reimbursement may be important. Your insurance company’s phone number can be found on the back of your insurance card. Questions that you may wish to ask your insurance company include:

-Do my benefits cover mental health?

-If I have mental health benefits, do my benefits include out-of-network providers?

-What portion of the amount that I pay will I be reimbursed upon seeing an out-of-network mental health provider?

-Do I need pre-approval or a referral before obtaining out-of-network mental health services to be reimbursed?

-How and where do I submit my bills for out-of-network mental health services?
