I have found that more and more T's are NOT taking insurance anymore. When I moved here, there were very few in my insurance panel and most of them did "short-term therapy" or were younger and less experienced. (no-way could handle me - LOL)
My T charges normally charges like $180 per 50-minute session (I think). T also likes to do longer sessions.
But, I only pay $70 because otherwise I would have to quit. I also can't afford extended sessions.The state of mental health payment is HORRIBLE and I can only hope that things change in the next several years....
