If you have health insurance…

Many people are unaware that their health insurance includes coverage for psychotherapy. By law, health insurance companies are required to provide comparable benefits for mental health that they provide for physical health, with only a few exceptions.

Health insurance coverage makes psychotherapy affordable for most people because you are only responsible for a specialist copayment and sometimes a deductible.

Find your health insurance below and contact any of our TherapySafetyNet clinicians who participates in your plan.
