Payment & Insurance

Growing Hope Counseling has a number of payment options and accepts a number of insurances

Payments Methods

Cash, check, money order, and most major credit cards are accepted.

Insurance Benefits

Contact us to verify if your insurance is accepted

Services may be covered in part or in full by your personal insurance plan.  
Check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:
  • "Do I have mental health insurance benefits?"
  • "How many sessions/year or per episode does my insurance cover?"
  • "What is my deductible, and has it been met?"
  • "Do I have a co-pay  or co-insurance, and if so, what is that amount?"
  • "Is prior authorization required for services? "When does my insurance rollover? When does my deductible start over?"
  • **Couples:  To inquire about Couples/Family counseling with your insurance carrier, ask: "Is 90847 covered under my benefit plan, with me as the primary patient?"​​

Concierge Care or Private Pay

More and more, the restrictions by 3rd party payors is dictating what care clients receive and how/when they can receive it.  One way to chart your own healthcare course is to choose "Concierge Care".  
What are the benefits?
  • Privacy!  No longer worry about what personal information your provider has to give your insurer.
  • Choose a provider that fits you rather than one your insurer picks for you.
  • Obtain referrals or continue utilizing services as long as YOU need rather than pre-determined 'cap' established by insurers.
  • More flexibility! Meet in person or online, from the privacy of your home or hotel room!
Contact Us for more information and pricing options on Concierge care!

Good Faith Estimate

 You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers must give patients without insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

  • Ensure your healthcare provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider and any other provider you choose for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

  • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

  • Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.
