Mentaya Badge

I've partnered with Mentaya, a service that streamlines getting reimbursed for your therapy sessions through out-of-network benefits.

Mentaya is perfect if you:

• Have out-of-network benefits

• Feel overwhelmed by superbills and insurance

• Have submitted superbills but failed to get any reimbursement

• Simply want to skip the hassle of paperwork!

Here's how it works:

1. Sign up for Mentaya: https://mentaya.co/inviteclient/YgAv4Hy9BngGpB1FYD1s

2. Our practice will enter your sessions into the platform.

3. Mentaya submits the claim and handles any insurance follow-up.

4. You get reimbursed by insurance!

Mentaya charges a 5% fee per claim, which includes handling any paperwork required, dealing with denials, and calling insurance companies.

It's risk-free: They guarantee claims are successfully submitted, or a full refund of their fees.

  • I am an Out of Network provider, and take all forms of payment, including HSA and FSA. Check the link below to see if you can use your Out of Network benefits for counseling!

  • Therapy is an investment in your own mental health. It is dedicated time to improve your relationships and figure out what works and what doesn’t in your life.

    My rates reflect the quality of work I provide, my experience, and a personalized approach I bring to each session.

    I believe you get what you pay for.

    In addition:

    • Therapists carry the weight of your trauma and emotions, while maintaining their own well-being

    • every session is backed by years of study, supervision, and continuing education to provide ethical, research based care

    • because it is not a quick fix

  • Simply fill out the Contact Me page with your preference in contact methods. I will either call or email you, and if you are ready, you can book an appointment immediately.

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE

Beginning January 1, 2022, federal laws regulating client care have been updated to include the “No Surprises” Act. Under the law, healthcare providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services called a “Good Faith Estimate” (GFE) explaining how much your medical care will cost.
This new regulation is designed to provide transparency to clients regarding their expected medical expenses and to protect them from surprises when they receive their medical bills. It allows clients to understand how much their health care will cost before they receive services. This applies to mental health as well. 

You and your therapist will continually assess the appropriate frequency of therapy and will work together to determine when you have met your goals and are ready for discharge. There are several factors that make it challenging to provide an estimate on how long it will take for a client to complete therapeutic treatment, and much depends on the individual client and their goals in seeking therapy. Some clients are satisfied with a reduction in symptoms while others continue longer because it feels beneficial to do so. Others begin to schedule less frequently and may continue to come in for “tune ups” or when issues arise. Ultimately, as the client, it is your decision when to stop therapy.

The Counseling Studio recognizes every client's therapy journey is unique. How long you need to engage in therapy and how often you attend sessions will be influenced by many factors including:

  • Your schedule and life circumstances

  • Therapist availability

  • Ongoing life challenges

  • The nature of your specific challenges and how you address them

  • Personal finances

​
According to the American Psychological Association, “on average 15 to 20 sessions are required for 50 percent of patients to recover as indicated by self-reported symptom measures." Additionally, through the working relationship between the client and counselor sometimes the preference is for “longer periods (e.g., 20 to 30 sessions over six months), to achieve more complete symptom remission and to feel confident in the skills needed to maintain treatment gains.” 
​
Like any other relationship, it takes time to develop a therapeutic relationship with your counselor and identify your treatment goals, establish a plan of action, and work towards accomplishing them. Whatever your number of sessions will be, we will work together to meet your needs.
