Fees & Insurance

Fees and Insurance

We understand that starting therapy is a meaningful financial commitment, and we are committed to making care as accessible and transparent as possible. Our goal is to offer options that allow you to choose what works best for your financial situation, preferences, and insurance coverage.

We offer three ways to pay for services: Insurance, Private Pay, and Out-of-Network through Mentaya.

Insurance

Using insurance can reduce your out-of-pocket costs, depending on your plan’s copay, coinsurance, and deductible.

We are in-network with

  • Blue Cross Blue Shield (We are unfortunately unable to take Blue Home and Blue Local Plans)

  • Aetna

  • Cigna

Private Pay

You may choose to pay directly for services. This option offers the most flexibility and privacy, without the requirements or limitations set by insurance companies.

Private Pay: $160/hour. 

Couples: $182/hour

Therapy Intensives:

$180/hour (weekday)

$200/hour (weekend)

Our clinicians offer Sliding Scale services when possible. Inquire directly about Sliding Scale rates and availability.

Out-of-network through mentaya

Out-of-network benefits can help you get reimbursed for therapy even if we’re not in-network with your insurance. Through The Birch Center, we partner with Mentaya to make this process simple—Mentaya submits claims to your insurance on your behalf so you don’t have to manage superbills or follow up with your plan.

Mentaya is a great fit if you have out-of-network benefits, feel overwhelmed by insurance paperwork, have struggled to receive reimbursement in the past, or just want a more streamlined experience.

They charge a 5% fee per claim, which covers submitting paperwork, handling denials, and communicating directly with your insurance company.
