How Do I Find a Therapist Who Accepts Insurance in Winston-Salem?
Our goal as a counseling practice is to make the insurance and payment process smooth. One place that you can start is by identifying what you’re looking for beyond insurance.
For example, do you need help with:
- Anxiety or depression?
- ADHD?
- Trauma?
- Grief?
- Couples or relationship concerns?
- Your child or teenager?
- Family concerns?
- A Spanish-speaking therapist?
Finding a counselor who accepts your insurance is helpful, but finding someone whose experience fits your needs is also important. Once you’ve identified potential therapists that fit your needs, verify their network status and your benefits before your first appointment.
What If My Insurance Doesn’t Cover Therapy?
This is often a question that our office receives. Not having insurance coverage doesn’t necessarily mean counseling isn’t an option.
Our counseling office offers self-pay services for people who don’t have insurance, don’t have out-of-network benefits, or prefer not to use insurance. Click here to learn more about our counseling fees.
Santos Counseling offers self-pay options in addition to insurance-based services.
When contacting a counseling practice, you can ask about:
- Standard self-pay session rates
- Available counseling packages
- Payment options
- Whether your insurance offers out-of-network benefits
- Whether a particular service is insurance-eligible or self-pay
Knowing the cost before your first appointment can help you make an informed decision.
