Rates & Insurance
Important Note:
NWHT requires all potential clients who wish to use their insurance plan to allow us to provide a complimentary benefits check prior to scheduling our 15-minute free phone consultation.
Benefit checks for mental healthcare coverage are helpful so that you know what your responsibility for payment is and to avoid unhappy surprises. This complimentary quote is NOT a guarantee of coverage. We strongly encourage all potential clients to contact their insurance carriers’ member services to confirm their benefits are in place. If you receive services, and your insurance company refuses payment, you will be responsible for all fees incurred.
Payment Types Accepted:
Your credit or debit card information will be entered into our HIPAA-compliant billing system when you fill out our secure online intake process. Your payment (private pay or co-pay) for each session will be processed by our secure, integrated, online payment application the same day as your session or within the week.
We do not accept cash or checks.

*NWHT employs both fully licensed and associate-level therapists who are working toward full licensure and are under clinical supervision.
While NWHT is contracted and in-network with these plans, your specific therapist may not be able to bill them until fully licensed. Some insurance plans will not allow associate-level therapists to bill in-network (only out-of-network) or may not allow them to bill at all.
We will let you know during the benefit check if a therapist is unable to bill your particular plan or if they can only bill out-of-network.
We understand that this can cause frustration and limit your access to care. However, these are policies put in place by insurance companies and are not under our control.
