In today’s health insurance climate, insurers are increasingly reluctant to pay for an out-of-network provider. It is important for you to understand what your policy covers. If you have coverage, we are glad to help you submit the proper information to your carrier. However, you will be expected to make full payment at the time of your session and have your insurance company reimburse you. Thanks for your understanding.
For those whose insurance does not cover biblical counseling, some reduced rates are available. Please contact our office for details.
