Understanding Fees & Insurance
​​
This page provides clear information about insurance, fees, and billing at Shoreview Psychotherapy. Our goal is to make the practical side of care as straightforward and transparent as possible, so you can focus on what matters most.
​
Insurance
​
We are in-network with Anthem, Regence, Premera, Lifewise and Kaiser of Washington. We are also able to provide out of network billing support with all other insurances in Washington.
​
Shoreview Psychotherapy provides virtual therapy for clients in Washington and accepts insurance. Coverage and benefits vary by plan, and your out-of-pocket cost may include a copay, coinsurance, or deductible depending on your specific policy.
We encourage clients to contact their insurance provider directly to understand their benefits. Our billing team is also available to help clarify insurance-related questions once you are established as a client.
​
Insurance participation can change over time. Please reach out to confirm current coverage. While we do everything we can to make sure we are providing accurate information regarding in-network coverage by checking benefits before your first session, it is ultimately your responsibility to confirm that we take your insurance
Standard Fees & Insurance Billing​
​
Shoreview Psychotherapy’s standard session fee billed to insurance is $265 for an initial session and $215 for ongoing 55-minute sessions. These rates are used for billing and reimbursement purposes.
​
For clients using insurance, the amount you are responsible for paying is determined by your individual insurance plan and may include a copay, coinsurance, or deductible. Most clients do not pay the full billed rate.
​
For clients who are uninsured or choosing not to use insurance, a standard self-pay rate is offered. Self-pay fees are discussed transparently prior to scheduling to ensure clarity and avoid unexpected costs. Lower-cost options and sliding scale may be available and fees may vary by provider and service.
No Surprises Act & Good Faith Estimates​
​
Under the No Surprises Act, clients who are uninsured or choosing not to use insurance have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of the expected cost of therapy services.
A Good Faith Estimate outlines anticipated charges for services and can be requested before scheduling or at any point during treatment.
If you receive a bill that is significantly higher than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the charges through the appropriate process.
Shoreview Psychotherapy is committed to transparency and will work with you to ensure you understand fees and billing before services begin.
Self-Pay & Additional Care Options​
​
Shoreview Psychotherapy offers self-pay therapy services for clients who are uninsured or who choose not to use insurance. The self-pay rate is $175 per 55-minute session.
Self-pay fees are discussed transparently prior to scheduling, and a Good Faith Estimate outlining expected costs is available upon request.
Limited flexibility may be available depending on circumstances, provider availability, and scheduling needs.
Shoreview Psychotherapy may also offer lower-fee therapy options with clinical interns who are closely supervised by licensed clinicians. Availability varies, and intern services may be a good fit for clients seeking more affordable care.
Billing & Payment​
​
Billing support for Shoreview Psychotherapy is provided by a dedicated billing service that assists with insurance claims, statements, and payment questions. This allows our clinicians to focus on providing care while billing is handled accurately and responsibly.
Clients will receive billing information, payment details, and instructions for accessing billing support through the client portal and intake materials.
If you have questions about billing or payment, you’re welcome to reach out and we’ll help point you in the right direction.
