Frequently asked questions.
Why don’t you accept insurance?
Unfortunately, in my opinion, our health system is run by health insurance companies. Health insurance companies operate in silos and have not yet caught up to modern approaches to health and wellness. Our system treats us in pieces ie: go to a traditional mental health provider to for the mind/emotions and only receive only that service and go to a physical health professional for your body and receive only that service. This is how they like it and this is how they pay for services. If I accepted insurance I would not be allowed to talk to you about anything other than the box of the service that they put me in. This, to me, is not helpful to you, my client.
Can I use a Health Savings Account card to pay for services?
It would be wonderful if you could spend your own money the way that you want to spend it! Unfortunately this is generally not the case most of the time. If you want to contact your HSA manager and get approval, I am happy to provide you with whatever documentation you need to accomplish that. I am much more hopeful that HSA’s will start to allow using your own money for Coaching and Wellness services sooner than Insurance companies will because there are some advocacy actions happening on a Federal level regarding HSA spending allowances.
Do you offer Therapeutic Stress Coaching packages?
I do occasionally offer packages throughout the year! Some people are much more interested that others so if you do not see a package offer on my website or newsletter, please reach out and let me know what you are looking for and we can set it up!
