For those seeing therapists: do you use one covered by your insurance or just pay out of pocket? Trying to find one, but navigating the insurance coverage is proving difficult.

I pay 80/session out of pocket, expensive for me but probably one of the things that’s kept me sane since starting.

Even if they’re not covered (“out of network”), you still get 70% reimbursed after deductible

Also keep in mind you can pay with an HSA or FSA (pre-tax dollars)

Out of pocket with copay. Very few therapists are covered. Finding one with weekend availability on top of that is impossible.

Agree with Associate 1, it was impossible to find someone I clicked with who’d do Saturday’s that my insurance covered. I pay out of pocket with a sliding scale rate.

I guess I'm lucky. My insurance covers 100% for as long as I need it. I see therapist on weekends only a few miles from home.

Awesome feedback, thanks all. What is a reasonable rate to pay? I am very new to this idea. Thanks!

How does sliding scale work?

I was really lucky and found a fantastic therapist who is in network for BC/BS PPO. $25 copay each visit.
