PIP / auto insurance

We accept PIP billing for clients who were in car accidents. This is billed to your auto insurance — not your health insurance — and most clients pay nothing out of pocket. See our car accident therapy page for details. All of our providers are trained to do EMDR for car accidents.

Sliding scale

Sliding scale fees of $35–$100 per session are available for sessions with our supervised graduate therapists. You choose the amount you can afford. No documentation required. No judgment.

Superbills

If your insurance plan has out-of-network mental health benefits, we can provide a superbill for reimbursement. Contact your insurance provider to understand your out-of-network benefits before your first session.

Good Faith Estimate

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges before you begin services.
