Other Insurance Options
Your privacy and ability to choose your own therapist is important and private pay allows you the freedom to choose whomever is the best fit for you and decide who has access to your records.
Due to the variance in insurance coverage, Positive Psychology Inc. encourages the private pay format for those who have insurance outside of those currently accepted. We can provide services as an out-of-network provider to accommodate your particular insurance, and many clients prefer this option. Each month, we can provide you with a receipt of services (a “Super Bill”) for you to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement should you choose to do so. We would be happy to discuss the super bill process.
Below is some information that might help you make the most informed decision about whether or not you choose to use your insurance when seeking services:
- If you use your insurance, we are required to share your private health information with your insurance company.
- Many insurance plans have high deductibles.
