We Support Your Child’s Growth

At CBT for Better Living, we work with both adults and adolescents who are facing workplace or school stress.

Our approach is to help clients change how they relate to their thoughts and behaviors that may be holding them back. We focus on helping individuals develop practical skills such as problem-solving, planning, and organization to manage stress effectively.

In each session, we work together to identify unhelpful beliefs and patterns that may be causing stress, while developing strategies to navigate challenges and stay focused on what matters. Clients learn how to manage anxiety, build confidence, and develop the time-management and stress-reduction skills necessary for a balanced, fulfilling life. We empower individuals to make room for stress and self-doubt while still taking action on their goals, whether in their careers or academic pursuits.

What are the fees?

Do you accept insurance?

Our services are private pay and we are considered out-of-network providers. Many people with out-of-network coverage can receive full or partial reimbursement for the cost of sessions through their health insurance. The amount covered will depend on the insurance plan. After each session, we can provide you with a document, called a "superbill" that has all of the necessary information required to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

How do I know if I have out-of-network coverage and if so, how does it work?

You can call your insurance company to inquire about your specific coverage and reimbursement. Here are some helpful questions to ask:

  • Do I have out-of-network coverage?

  • If so, is there an annual deductible? Have I met it? If no, how much has been met?

  • What percentage do you cover for out-of-network mental health providers?

  • Is there a maximum amount you reimburse per visit or per year?

  • Is there a claim form that I must use to submit for reimbursement?

  • How much time do I have to submit a claim after my session?

  • Do I need a pre-authorization? If so, how do I obtain it?
