Frequently Asked Questions

DO YOU ACCEPT INSURANCE?

I am out-of-network for all insurance. However, I am happy to provide receipts of services for anyone who wants to seek out-of-network reimbursement from their insurance. I also accept FSA and HSA accounts.

HOW DO I KNOW WHAT/IF MY INSURANCE WILL REIMBURSE?

Many clients have 60-80% of their therapy cost reimbursed to them after reaching their deductible, based on their out-of-network benefits. I recommend calling your specific insurance provider, before therapy services, to determine if any prior authorization is necessary and to learn more details about your specific deductible and reimbursement rates.

  • Initial Intake Session: 90791 $180

DO YOU OFFER REDUCED RATES?

I am able to offer a reduced rate on a sliding scale. The rate is based off of the client’s individual needs. Keep in mind a reduced rate appointment will occur before 2:00pm.

WHAT IF I AM RUNNING LATE/ NEED TO CANCEL MY APPOINTMENT.

If you are running late, or need to cancel your appointment, email or text is the best way to notify me as I am unable to take phone calls while in session.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AT MY INTAKE?

Children 5th grade and under - Intakes are caregivers only for younger clients, so please arrange child care.

Teenagers: Intakes are split between the teen and caregiver, 25 min each. If this is not possible, a parent only intake is fine too.

Adults: Intakes are a space for you to interview me as well, ensuring you feel we are a good fit so feel free to come with questions for me.

Intakes are informational sessions. Topics will include social/emotional/family history, previous therapies, goals, strengths, struggles, etc.

ALL PAPERWORK MUST BE FILLED OUT PRIOR TO INTAKE- this is non-negotiable as legally I am required to have permission to provide clinical care. If you forgot, or had troubles logging in, I have paper forms at the office.

WHAT DO I DO IN A TIME OF CRISIS?

Align Counseling is NOT a crisis center. If you or your child are experiencing a mental health emergency please safely go to the nearest hospital or dial 911. You can also contact the Georgia Crisis and Access Line at 1-800-715-4225.
