Fees


The cost of therapy can be daunting and is often a hurdle for people accessing the care they need. Emboldened Mental Health (EMH) recognizes that therapy is an investment and is willing to work with clients and their families to find a balance that can make therapy mutually sustainable. At this time, sessions are conducted via the SimplePractice video-conferencing app and EMH only serves residents of Washington State.

At this time, session rates are as follows:

  • Free 20-minute phone or Telehealth video consultation to determine if Brianne is a good therapeutic fit for you or your teen

  • $150 for a 50-minute individual Telehealth counseling session

  • $200 for an 80-minute individual Telehealth counseling session

  • $200 for a 50-minute family Telehealth counseling session

Payment is due at time of service. Brianne accepts payment by debit/credit card, PayPal, Venmo, Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), or Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs). Please give at least 24 hours notice for cancellations or rescheduling to avoid paying a $75 fee.

Emboldened Mental Health also offers sliding-scale rate pricing for those experiencing financial hardships. If the cost of therapy is a challenge for you, Brianne offers a limited number of reduced-fee counseling session slots based on need. Please inquire if one is available during your initial contact.

Insurance

Emboldened Mental Health (EMH) does not accept insurance at this time but may be considered and accepted by some insurance companies as an “out of network” provider. A monthly receipt (or Superbill) can be provided to you if you wish to submit it to your insurance company directly for an “out of network” reimbursement. Clients are responsible for interacting with their insurance providers and for managing their therapy payments.

As with most insurance questions, it is a good idea to call your insurance company directly to verify coverage before receiving services. Some helpful questions to ask include:

  • What is the reimbursement rate for an out-of-network therapy provider?

  • Is approval required from my primary care physician for me to pursue and be reimbursed for counseling and mental health services?

  • How many outpatient mental health sessions are covered per year?

  • What is my deductible and has it been met?
