The cost or our services are within the usual and customary fees for professional therapeutic services in our community. Our standard fee for individual psychotherapy is $175 per 55-60 minute hour and $175 per session for couples, family and group services. We do recognize that not everyone can afford our usual fees and we do not want the cost of treatment to interfer with our abilities to serve you. If the person(s) are motivated to learn and change, we can be flexible in our fees, which may be in a reduced amount (sliding scale rates). Not all of our Stillpoint Associatesparticipate in or accept managed care plans or other provider-insurance company agreements. We base our treatment plans on the needs of our clients, adapting our approaches to each and every client and their unique situation. We are guided by what is in the best interest and welfare of our clients not an insurance company! If you would like to seek reimbursement from your insurance carrier for our services, we will be more than happy to supply you with a super bill that has all the insurance information on it that will help expedite your claim. However, full payment is expected after each session. If we are within your insurance network, your co-payment responsiblity is due at the end of each session (this includes full session payment if you have not met your insurance deductible). Your insurance company will then be billed for the remainder of the invoice. Currently, Vince Redmond and Elaine Herrera are in the Anthem (Blue Cross), Magellan (Blue Shield), Aetna, United Healthcare/Optum and CIGNA mental health networks. Jennifer Layman is in the CIGNA network.
Confidentiality is of the highest priority with our associates. We will maintain total confidentialty unless released to do so by the client or if mandated by the state of California. As protectors of the public, we are obligated to break our clients confidentiality in efforts to protect them or others if a client reports:
Child abuse
Elderly abuse
Imminent danger to others or another's property
Imminent danger to self
A complete Informed Consent form will be reviewed and agreed upon with every client before the start of services.
