Private Pay Information

Opting for private pay means you cover the full session fee, which is based on an hourly rate set by our practice. This approach offers unique benefits, such as greater privacy and flexibility (details below). For psychotherapy clients, we provide superbills upon request to support reimbursement claims. Good Faith Estimates are also provided for psychotherapy services. We accept credit card payments, and third-party payments (e.g., from family or organizations) can be arranged in advance with our practice manager via check.

Superbill Reimbursement

Nando Schlecht LAC is a private-pay psychotherapist and does not work directly with insurance providers. If your insurance plan includes out-of-network mental health benefits, you can submit a superbill to request partial or full reimbursement for sessions with licensed counselors.

Benefits of Private Pay

Utilizing the private-pay option for counseling puts you in control of your counseling in a few different ways:

​

• Choice – you are able to choose your therapist rather than selecting off a list from your insurance.

​

• Privacy – your information is not being sent to an insurance company to authorize treatment/monitor progress which means no one knows you are receiving counseling unless you disclose this information.

​

• Freedom – health insurance requires a diagnosis to authorize treatment; this is not the case when you private-pay which means you and your therapist have the option to not label your struggle with a diagnosis unless this is a benefit to you.
