Understanding Your Insurance Benefits

To determine your specific coverage for psychoanalytic therapy at our Treatment Center, we recommend:

  1. Contact BlueShield Blue Cross directly: Call the member services number on the back of your insurance card.
  2. Ask about these specific benefits:
    • Whether you have a deductible that must be met before coverage begins
    • If you have a copayment for each session or a coinsurance percentage
    • If there are any session limits for mental health services
    • Whether you need a referral or pre-authorization for therapy services
  3. Verify coverage for psychoanalytic therapy: Ensure that your plan covers the specific types of therapy provided at our Treatment Center.

When you schedule an appointment with us, our administrative team will also verify your insurance benefits and provide you with an estimate of any out-of-pocket costs you may incur. We believe in transparency regarding fees and will discuss financial arrangements before your treatment begins.
