Bluebird Therapy does not accept insurance. I can, however, provide superbills for you to submit to your insurance for reimbursement.

Accepting insurance requires giving clients a diagnosis, which stays on your permanent record, and there are many times in which clients do not require a diagnosis and would benefit from therapy. Being an out-of-network provider means being able to provide care without the requirement to diagnose when unnecessary.

Superbills are a receipt of service that you can submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. You would pay for services up front and then be provided with this document. You will need to check with your insurance company to see if you have out-of-network benefits for mental health. Ask your insurance company the following questions to determine your benefits:

• Do I have out of network mental health benefits?

• What is my deductible for out-of-network coverage? Has it been met?

• What percentage of each session will I receive as reimbursement? (They may ask for a CPT code, you can tell them 90834 will be used.)

• How do I submit claims for reimbursement?

All major credit cards are accepted as well as cash, check, and HSA/FSA cards.

The card on file will be charged automatically the night of each appointment.

Physical payment is due at the end of each session.
