At Park Cities Child and Family Counseling, we are committed to providing the highest quality of care and personalized attention to our clients. While we do not accept insurance, we do provide superbills that you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Many clients find this an acceptable compromise between the benefits of using insurance and the advantages of our personalized, confidential approach.
While we understand the importance of insurance coverage, there are several reasons why we have chosen not to participate as in-network providers.
- Confidentiality and Privacy: When using insurance for counseling, there is typically a requirement for sharing diagnostic and treatment information with the insurance company. This may compromise the confidentiality and privacy of your counseling sessions. We believe that your therapeutic journey should remain private and focused on your needs.
- Control over Treatment: By not involving insurance, we have the flexibility to tailor your treatment plan solely based on your unique needs and goals. This allows us to provide a more personalized and effective therapeutic experience.
- Number of Sessions: Insurance companies often limit the number of sessions covered, which may not align with your actual therapeutic needs. We want to ensure that you have the time and support necessary to make lasting positive changes in your life.
- Diagnosis and Stigma: Insurance reimbursement often requires a diagnosis that becomes part of your permanent medical record. We believe in focusing on your well-being without attaching labels that may impact future opportunities or perceptions.
