Under the law, health care providers are required to provide clients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance with an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your therapy services are expected to cost.

If you are paying out-of-pocket (not using insurance), you can request a Good Faith Estimate before scheduling services or at any time during treatment.

Your Good Faith Estimate will include:

The cost per session

The frequency of sessions (if known)

The estimated total cost of services over a period of time

Session Fees

Individual Therapy (50–55 minutes): $_____ per session
Extended Sessions (if applicable): $_____
Other Services (letters, forms, consultations): $_____

The total cost of therapy depends on the number of sessions needed, which varies based on individual goals and clinical needs.

You may request a written Good Faith Estimate at any time by contacting:

Allyson Patterson, M.Ed., LPC 
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill.
