Why Private Pay?

Insurance can reduce the personalized care that best fits your needs. Together we come up with your treatment plan and decide your frequency and attendance based on need.

 

I believe in holding space for my clients, making them feel valued and important. Empowerment and change is within your control, you just need the opportunity to share your story and gain the necessary skills.

Payment Policies

No Shows/ Late cancellations

Charge for non-payment

If the client misses an appointment or cancels within 24 hours of their appointment without a legitimate emergency, the card on file will be charged $85 the day of missed service. They will be charged the $85 missed appointment fee as well as be asked to reschedule. Sickness is not considered an emergency. If this occurs more than 2 times, Wounded Haven Counseling, LLC has the right to refer to other providers and cease treatment due to lack of attendance. Wounded Haven Counseling, LLC also has the right to determine legitimacy of late cancel in determining it counting towards the 2-time missed policy.

Payment is expected the day of service. If Wounded Haven Counseling, LLC charges the card on file and it is declined, the card needs to be updated the day of service. If card on file is not updated within 24 hours of the date of service, Wounded Haven Counseling, LLC has the right to charge the card on file 10% of service fee, per day, until bill is paid ( example: if service charge is $85, client will be charged $85 initially, as well as $8.50 per day until bill is paid in full).

Good Faith Estimate

You are entitled to receive this “Good Faith Estimate” of your potential charges for psychotherapy services provided to you. While it is not possible for a psychotherapist to know, in advance, how many psychotherapy sessions may be necessary or appropriate for a given person, this form provides an estimate of the cost of services provided. Your total cost of services will depend upon the number of psychotherapy sessions you attend, your individual circumstances, and the type and amount of services that are provided to you. This estimate is not a contract and does not obligate you to obtain any services from the provider(s) listed, nor does it include any services rendered to you that are not identified here.  This good faith estimate is valid for 12 months.


This Good Faith Estimate is not intended to serve as a recommendation for treatment or a prediction that you may need to attend a specified number of psychotherapy visits. The number of visits that are appropriate in your case, and the estimated cost for those services, depends on your needs and what you agree to in consultation with your therapist.  You are entitled to disagree with any recommendations made to you concerning your treatment and you may discontinue treatment at any time.You have a right to initiate a dispute resolution process with U.S Department of health and human services (HHS) if the actual amount charged to you substantially exceeds the estimated charges stated in your Good Faith Estimate (which means $400 or more beyond the estimated charges). If you choose to utilize this dispute option, you will be required to submit your claim within 120 calendar days from the date of your first bill. There is a $25 fee to utilize HHS dispute process. If the agency reviewing your claims agrees with you, you will have to pay the price of the good faith estimate. If the agency disagrees with you and agrees with your health care provider, you will be required to pay the full amount.


You are encouraged to speak with your provider at any time about any questions you may have regarding your treatment plan, or the information provided to you in this Good Faith Estimate. Please visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises for more information or to start your dispute claim.
