We recommend contacting your insurance company to confirm the details of your out-of-network benefits.
When seeking reimbursement, your insurance may ask for:
- CPT Code: 90834
- Therapist’s License
- Therapist’s NPI Number (provided upon request)
- Session Rates: $150 – $250
- Session Length: 45 minutes

Session rates vary depending on the therapist and the client’s specific needs, generally ranging from $150 to $250. We also offer a sliding scale for those who may need financial assistance. If you have any questions or concerns about payment, please feel free to reach out to discuss your options.
