All Services Provided via Secure Online Platform

Every session happens through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform, accessible from your phone or computer. No commute, no waiting room, just support that fits into wherever your day already has you. 

Benefits of Telehealth

Telehealth removes a lot of the practical barriers that keep people from starting or sticking with therapy, travel time, childcare, fitting an appointment into a packed schedule. You can meet from home, your car, or anywhere else you have privacy, in a setting that's actually comfortable for you.

Insurance and Fees

Insurance

I accept some insurance plans, and which ones I'm in-network with can change over time, so rather than list specific insurers here, I'd encourage you to ask during our free consultation and I'll let you know where things currently stand. I also offer self-pay, sliding scale, and out-of-network options, so there are a few different paths to make working together financially manageable.

If we're not in-network with your specific plan, you may still have out-of-network benefits. Many PPO plans reimburse 50 to 80% of fees, depending on your coverage and whether you've met your deductible. Upon request, after your session is completed and payment is processed, I can provide a superbill, a receipt you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Any reimbursement is sent directly to you, and while I can't guarantee what your plan will cover, I'm happy to help you understand the process.


Questions to ask your insurance company:

  1. Does my plan cover mental health services?
  2. What percentage of my bill will be covered for an out-of-network provider?
  3. How many sessions does my plan cover per calendar year?
  4. What is my deductible, and has it been met?

Standard Self-Pay Fees

Fees are charged at the time of service and should be paid within 48 hours of invoice.

Bicoastal Counseling & Coaching, LLC reserves the right to change fees at any time.

Sliding Fee Scale

Table showing mental health service rates by family income level.

 I'm committed to keeping therapy accessible, which is why I offer a sliding fee scale based on combined family income. If you think you might qualify for a discounted rate, reach out to request an application before starting services. Current clients can apply at any time. 

Terms and Conditions

Qualifying clients must provide proof of income, unemployment, or disability payments. Approval should be requested before beginning services; existing clients who apply and are approved will receive the discount on future sessions, though it isn't retroactive and can't be combined with other offers. I reserve the right to modify or discontinue this program at any time. A limited number of discounted spaces are available; if none are open when you're approved, you may be placed on a waitlist or choose to start at the standard rate and switch once a space opens (which may mean changing providers, since not all providers offer this discount). If information provided to qualify is later found to be false, the discount will be revoked and full fees will be due immediately. If a third party is covering your services, the discount is based on their income, not yours.
