At Wellness Matters Mental Health, we believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Every individual brings a unique story, strengths, and goals, which is why our clinicians tailor treatment to meet each person's specific needs. We use evidence-based, compassionate approaches to help clients create meaningful, lasting change.
Our therapeutic approaches include:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) – Building skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and healthy relationships.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – Increasing psychological flexibility while living in alignment with personal values.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) – Understanding and healing the different "parts" of ourselves with compassion.
Motivational Interviewing (MI) – Strengthening motivation and confidence to make positive life changes.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) – Building on strengths and creating practical solutions for the future.
Trauma-Informed Care – Providing a safe, supportive approach that recognizes the impact of trauma on mental health and recovery.
Our clinicians integrate these approaches to provide individualized treatment for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, emotional regulation, and substance use disorders.

Your Insurance and Payment Questions Answered
-
Insurance plans vary, but most fall into two common structures:
Copay plans: You pay a set fee per session (for example, $10–$80).
Deductible plans: Your sessions apply toward your deductible first.
If your plan has a deductible, you are responsible for 100% of the contracted rate for therapy sessions until your deductible is met.
-
Once you complete your intake and add your insurance in the portal, we will:
Verify your benefits
Request an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) summary from your insurance company
This gives us an estimate of your expected cost per session.
We will reach out to you to provide the estimate we receive.
-
Yes—we strongly encourage it.
Your insurance company can give you the most detailed and up-to-date information about:
Your deductible
Copays or coinsurance
Out-of-pocket maximum
You can call the Member Services number on the back of your insurance card.
-
You can ask:
Does my plan have a deductible for outpatient mental health?
What is my remaining deductible?
What is my cost per session (copay or coinsurance)?
Does my plan cover CPT code 90837 (60-minute therapy)?
Do I need prior authorization?
-
Yes! You can use HSA (Health Savings Account) or FSA (Flexible Spending Account) cards to pay for therapy services.
-
We charge an estimated patient responsibility at the time of each appointment based on the information provided by your insurance company.
-
Once your insurance processes the claim, they send an Explanation of Payment (EOP) outlining your exact responsibility.
At that point, we will:
Adjust your balance if needed
Charge or refund the difference to match the finalized amount from your insurance
-
Charging an estimate helps:
Keep balances from building up over time
Provide a more consistent and predictable payment process
Reduce the likelihood of large, unexpected bills later
-
If your insurance determines a different responsibility than initially estimated, we will adjust your account accordingly. This may result in:
A small additional charge, or
A credit/refund
-
Yes. If there is any change after your insurance processes the claim, it will be reflected in your account, and you will see the updated charge or credit.
-
If a claim is denied, we will reach out to the insurance company to identify the reason for denial. We will notify you and review next steps. You may be responsible for the session cost depending on the reason for denial.
