Insurance & Fees

Fee for Sessions

Investing in yourself is one of the most important and empowering decisions you can make. At Sage House Counseling & Art Therapy we value the trust you place in us to guide you to wellness. Our highly trained clinicians provide our clients with specialized, high-quality, and compassionate mental health care. We work with each client to not only meet therapy goals but ensure positive, lasting change from the very first session.

Session fees range from $145-$275, depending on the clinicians, type of therapy service you are seeking, and the session duration. Therapy services are eligible for in-network and out-of-network reimbursement. Please contact us for more information. 

Our practice also offers sessions led by Graduate Level Art Therapy and Counseling Interns who offer quality therapy sessions at a lower cost, under the supervision of our experienced, credentialed clinicians. These session fees range from $55-$75.

Parent Coaching Packages, which can be purchased in packages of 6, 8 and 12 sessions. Package prices range from $1020-$2040, depending on the quantity purchased. Parent Coaching Sessions are not eligible for insurance reimbursement. Payment plans are available upon request.

Insurance Reimbursement

Sage House Counseling & Art Therapy offers a range of in-network and out of network services, depending on your specific insurance plan and therapy needs. Many of our clinicians are in-network providers with Anthem BCBS PPO plans and a preferred out of network provider with Kaiser Permanente.

For Anthem BCBS PPO plan members, a co-pay is due at the time of service. If you have a deductible, you must first meet your deductible before your sessions are eligible for coverage. We do not accept HMO or other non-PPO AnthemBCBS plans.

For Kaiser Permanente members, the full session fee is due at the the time of service, however, all session fees are eligible for full reimbursement through Kasier Permanente by submitting a SuperBill, which is provided at the time of service. No referral is required by Kaiser Permanente to see a Sage House preferred out of network clinician.

Each insurance carrier and plan is different so we recommend you contact your insurance provider directly with any questions regarding coverage. As a convenience, we offer direct submission of all in-network and out of network claims.

Select “+” to expand clinicians reimbursements and “-” to collapse.

Accepted Forms of Payment

We currently accept all major credit cards, FSA and personal check.  Payment is due at the time of your therapy session.

For In-network clients, a copay will be collected at the time of each session. All new clients are responsible for finding out their insurance coverage and policy details prior to the initial intake session. For a list of helpful questions to ask your insurance provider please see the list below.

Cancellation Policy

We understand that things come up and you may not be able to make it to your appointment. That is okay. We ask that you provide your therapist with 24 hours notice to avoid being billed for the full session cost.

Helpful Questions to Ask your Insurance Provider

For In-Network Benefits:

Please be sure to verify your insurance coverage prior to your first therapy appointment.

• Is the therapist I want to see listed as an approved in-network provider with my insurance plan? (This can be verified by providing the provider’s name and office address)

• Does your insurance plan have a deductible? If yes, have you met the deductible?

• When is the deductible scheduled to reset?

• Do I have co-insurance?

• What is my co-pay amount?

• Is my mental health deductible separate from my medical deductible?

• Does my plan cover “mental health outpatient visits”?

• Do I need a preauthorization for sessions? If so, what is the paperwork I need to provide prior to seeing a provider?

• Do I need a referral from my primary care physician?

• How many sessions does my plan allow for in one calendar year?

• Is there a time limit on the sessions my plan allows (i.e. 45-minute sessions, 50-minutes sessions or 60-minute sessions) Some plans only allow a max session duration of 50-minutes?

• Does my insurance cover the following CPT codes: 90837 and 90785

• If you wish to participate in online therapy (telehealth sessions) you will want to ask if your insurance covers “telemental health sessions (with the modifier 95)”

• Can I meet with more than one provider for a consultation or second opinion and still have it paid for?

For Out- of- Network Benefits:

If choosing to see one of our out of network providers, you will want to verify several pieces of information before moving forward. Some insurance plans accept services rendered by our therapists, while others do not. It is important to provide your insurance carrier with the full name, NPI, and license of the specific therapist you wish to see at Sage House to verify eligibility. We are also happy to assist you with this.
