PAYING FOR THERAPY
Private Pay / BetterHelp.com
Carmen Grace Counseling chooses to be a private-pay teletherapy clinic because we believe this allows us to offer a higher standard of care to our clients. If you want to have more control over your therapy and are seeking the highest level of care, privacy and confidentiality, private pay has serious advantages over alternative methods of paying for therapy.

ADDITIONAL PAYMENT FAQ
DO YOU ACCEPT FSA/HSA ACCOUNTS?
If you have a flexible spending account (FSA) or health savings account (HSA), you can use these pre-tax dollars to pay for therapy. The services provided at Sycamore Counseling Services qualify as a medical/health expense. In the event that your FSA/HSA administrator requires an itemized receipt, I will provide this for you upon request.
WHAT ABOUT OUT-OF-NETWORK INSURANCE?
Upon request, i will provide a monthly receipt, for you to submit to your insurance company. If you have out-of-network (OON) benefits, it is possible that you will receive partial reimbursement for your therapy sessions, usually at a slightly lower percentage than what you would receive in-network. I advise that you check with your insurance company ahead of time to inquire about your eligibility for OON benefits and to make sure you understand your responsibility to first meet a deductible. I also encourage clients to consider how providing information to your insurance company may effect confidentiality.
DO YOU OFFER REDUCED FEES?
If you are in a service job position I offer a discounted session rate for all therapy services. Additionally, I reserve a limited number of reduced fee sessions to assist clients in need. In the event that these rates are not affordable for an individual or I do not have current reduced fee spots available, I will do my best to refer you to other low-cost services in the area.
