We currently accept the following insurances for counseling services:

HealthPartners, Medica, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, United Healthcare, Midland’s Choice, Wellpoint, Molina, Cigna, Iowa Total Care, and Medicare.

You will be responsible for any copays. You are encouraged to contact your insurance to ensure that services would be covered prior to scheduling.

Item Initial assessment for either mental health or addiction is $190. Individual therapy sessions are $120. Payment is expected at the time of services.

We are able to accept cash, check, or debit/credit at the time of appointment, or you can be billed online and pay by debit/credit card.

If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, we ask that you provide us with 24-hour notice.

If you miss a session without canceling, or cancel with less than 24-hour notice, our policy is to collect the no-show/late cancellation fee equal to the cost of your full appointment time—unless we both agree that you were unable to attend due to circumstances beyond your control. This would not be covered by insurance.
