Equitable Pricing, Transparency, and Insurance
Figuring out how to pay for therapy can feel confusing—you're not alone in that. I'm committed to supporting both individual and community healing, and that includes helping you navigate your options with clarity and ease.
This FAQ breaks down insurance, self-pay, and the benefits of each so you can make the choice that feels right for you.
Using insurance
Do you take insurance?
Yes, I’m in network with Aetna, Sunflower Health Plan - Kansas Medicaid, and UnitedHealthcare - Kansas Medicaid.
How much will it cost with my insurance?
Each plan is unique, so you will need to check your plan for coverage details. It is your responsibility to verify your benefits directly with your insurance company to confirm coverage.
What if my therapist is not In Network with my insurance?
We can provide a Superbill to clients who wish to submit it to their insurance for reimbursement towards out-of-network benefits. A Superbill is a receipt that contains my business and tax information, as well as your session and billing information. Many insurance plans will reimburse a percentage of your bill for out-of-network providers. If yours does, you may submit this Superbill to your insurance for reimbursement.
*Note: Superbills do contain a diagnosis, so if you wish to keep that information private, submitting a Superbill will not be in your best interest.
Can you submit my Superbill for me?
We'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:
2. Moxie Wellness 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.
Self-pay option
How much do your sessions cost?
50-minute sessions are $135
90-minute sessions are $265
Do you offer any reduced-cost options?
Yes, I offer equity-based reduced-cost therapy for a limited number of clients in financial need.
In a world that thrives on scarcity, embracing equity can feel tough. Financial stability helps us meet our basic needs together. Some folks might feel uneasy about paying more than others, but it’s about what aligns with your ability to pay.
We want to ensure that everyone who can pay market rates does so, even if it means adjusting your budget, so that reduced-fee spots are available for those truly in need.
Right now, this model takes into account your identity, access, and resources. There may be times when I can’t offer reduced rates, but I’m always happy to connect you with others who can help. When we have our consultation phone call, we can discuss your ability to pay. Reach out with any questions or ideas!
What are the benefits of self-pay therapy?
No diagnosis is required for self-pay clients.
While a diagnosis for some can be beneficial, for others it could have its consequences. It could compromise one’s ability to obtain life, health, or disability insurance.
No limits placed on treatment.
No diagnosis is required for self-pay clients.
Your goals and treatment will be determined by you and the clinician as a self-pay client. When going through insurance, our choices and treatment options may be limited as insurance determines for us what is considered “medically necessary”. Such limitations may include number and length of sessions, what diagnoses they will cover, and treatment types. These limitations do not always align with your treatment recommendations and inhibits your progress.
You will have complete privacy.
When using insurance, your information (diagnosis, nature of issues seeking counseling, treatment goals, how long the issue has persisted) is all shared with your insurance, anyone involved in processing and handling the claims, and future employers.
You can receive the specialized treatment you are seeking.
Your ideal therapist may not be paired with your particular insurance, however it will be more beneficial to your mental health to receive short-term treatment and pay out-of-pocket, than to use insurance long-term, with a provider that is not trained in your particular concern.
