What is my copay for therapy?

A copay, or copayment, is a fixed amount that you, as the client, are required to pay for each counseling when we bill your insurance. The exact amount varies based on your specific health insurance plan.

A counseling session will usually have the same copay as a PCP (Primary Care Physician) visit and/or an Office Visit.  If you have a copay plan, you'll sometimes see your copay listed on your insurance card.
