“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.”

Benjamin Franklin

Payment

Stillpoint uses a self-pay model, meaning that I am not a participating provider with any insurance companies and that you pay for sessions to me directly. However, many people are unaware that they have out-of-network benefits available to them that can help keep therapy affordable. If you’re unsure if you have out-of-network benefits included in your plan, I am able to check that for you before you commit to scheduling.

The self-pay model allows for a smaller caseload and highly individualized attention to your care.

While I want to acknowledge that using insurance can greatly relieve financial constraints, there are several important drawbacks to accepting it including privacy concerns (for you) and the volume of clients and administrative tasks I would need to take on to take it. Choosing a self-pay model greatly improves my mental health and well-being, allowing me to meet my ethical duty to not practice while impaired and most importantly, results in higher quality care for you. 

If you have concerns about cost, please check my rates below for options. Though I recommend that new clients be seen on a weekly basis, also consider that you may elect to be seen on a bi-weekly (every other week) basis to help with cost.
