Due to the implementation of telehealth, a saved payment method on file is now required for all clients regardless of insurance coverage.

No Insurance? Our current discounted Self-pay Service fees are:

  • Initial assessment – $150.00
  • Sixty minute follow-up – $140.00 (53-60 minutes)
  • Forty-five minute follow-up – $120.00 (36-52 minutes)

Clients may pay for session fees and insurance carrier determined cost share by online check draft or credit card.

As a courtesy service to you, we will bill your insurance company directly, and accept benefit assignment whenever possible, to reduce any upfront cost you may be responsible for.

    • Please contact your local Kaiser Behavioral Health line directly for screening and to request placement. If an appointment with our clinic is not showing as available for the Kaiser representative, or if you would like to be added to the waitlist for a specific provider or time of day, you may begin the registration process using this link: Request an Appointment.

If your insurance carrier is not listed above, we will bill as an “out-of-network” provider.

We are not currently accepting Blue Shield of California plans. However, many out-of-state Blue Shield plans may be billable within the Blue Cross of California network. Please request an appointment and use this secure file transfer to send your insurance card and type your request for preliminary benefit verification.

We accept most PPO insurance out-of-network benefits, but your insurance carrier may have additional requirements. This may include informing your insurance before beginning treatment, obtaining an authorization number, reimbursement sent to your home address, among others.
