COST & INFO.

SESSION FEES + SLIDING SCALE

Our therapy session rates vary based on the therapist’s experience, the type of therapy provided and the duration of the service. Therapists with specialized training or extensive experience have higher rates.

Individual 50-minute sessions range from $175 to $285.

50-minute and 75-minute couples and family sessions range from $200 to $375.

Your therapist will go over pricing details during your initial consultation, ensuring transparency before your first appointment.

If you’re in need of financial assistance, we offer a few lower-cost options.

AFFORDABLE THERAPY OPTIONS

We believe everyone deserves access to quality therapy. That’s why we offer a limited number of reduced-fee spots for clients who are eager to start therapy but are seeking a more flexible fee option.

If cost is a concern, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re happy to discuss options.

Don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation to discuss this further.

HASSLE FREE INSURANCE REIMBURSEMENT

We are not in network with any insurance plans. Fortunately many of our clients are able to use their out of network (OON) benefits to help cover the cost of therapy. This means they pay for sessions up front and receive financial reimbursement directly from their insurance. If you have a PPO, then you have OON coverage but the % of reimbursement for sessions depends on your specific plan.

We understand that navigating the insurance world can be quite confusing. You may be unsure about your OON benefits which makes estimating the cost of therapy difficult to predict when you are researching potential therapists. We want to make this process as easy as possible so read below to find out how we can help you verify your OON coverage and receive information about your potential reimbursement for your treatment.

Beachy Feels Therapy & Mentaya: How do I use my out of network benefits to cover the cost of therapy?

Using out of network benefits to help cover the cost of therapy can be complicated, frustrating and honestly quite discouraging. But, it doesn’t have to be. To make the process seamless, we use Mentaya, a platform that helps clients get money back on therapy—without the hassle of filing claims themselves.

How does it work?

  1. We confirm your out of network benefits for you- just fill out this form.

  2. Schedule your complimentary consultation with your preferred therapist and we will go over information regarding your reimbursement and an estimated cost of your reimbursement for our services during the consultation call.

  • Not sure who your preferred therapist is? No problem! Fill out the contact form here and let us know a little bit about you and what you are looking for. From there, we’ll guide you in finding the therapist who’s the best fit for your needs.

Then after each session,

We submit claims for you—you don’t have to do a thing.
✔ Mentaya handles the reimbursement process with your insurance.
✔ If your insurance offers out-of-network benefits, you’ll receive reimbursement directly.

(Note: Mentaya charges a small fee for claim processing, handling any paperwork required, dealing with denials, and calling insurance companies, but only if you receive reimbursement.) It's risk-free: They guarantee claims are successfully submitted, or a full refund of their fees.

Have any questions? Please let us know! We are more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

Sign up for Mentaya

If you want to call your insurance on your own we recommend asking the following questions:

-Is there an out of network deductible I have to meet prior to receiving reimbursement?

- Is there a limit to the number of sessions covered in a calendar year?
