​
Due to insurance billing code and their definitions, family therapy and couples counseling/marital therapy may or may not be covered by insurance. The self-pay rates are: $165 for independently licensed therapist (LISW, LPCC, IMFT) and $125 for dependently licensed therapist (LPC, LSW, MFT). Insurance requires us to identify one person as the patient, diagnose them with a mental health disorder, and then only document what is being done to treat that person via couples work. If the couples work is not related to the person's diagnosis, then it is not likely insurance billable. If the couple does not want to make one person the identified problem, they can opt out of using their insurance.

Crisis Call 25-35 min, unscheduled $80

​
How will I know if the therapist is right for me/my child?
The first appointment is an interview for you and your therapist to decide if your therapist is a good fit to meet your needs. I assure you that if we determine it is not a good fit, we will help you find a better fit. You have a right to speak up and assert your needs and desires, let your therapist know if they aren't a great fit, and ask to be re-matched either inside or outside of our practice.
​
Do you offer teletherapy (online) or in person therapy?
Both! You can discuss which you prefer with your therapist! The physical location are in Cincinnati, Ohio. Due to state licensing laws, therapists can only provide services to residents of Ohio (and some therapists are also able to offer telehealth to Kentucky residents), and you must be physically in the state at the time of your appointment if using teletherapy.
​
How long is a therapy appointment?
Therapy appointments are generally between 45-57 minutes long.
​
Does Inclusive Counseling honor the No Surprises Act?
Yes! You will receive a copy of the No Surprises Act when you schedule so that you are aware of all fees and you will receive a Good Faith Estimate of what therapy will cost for the first year! You can preview the No Surprises Act here! You may ask for an updated Good Faith Estimate at any time.
​
Does Inclusive Counseling have prescribers or emergency resources?
Yes and no - we have great partnerships to fill these needs which can be found here!
​
