Cura Counseling is an out-of-network, private pay practice. I do not accept insurance, submit claims, or communicate with insurance companies.
If your insurance plan includes out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill for you to submit independently for reimbursement.
Working outside of insurance allows for:
Greater privacy and confidentiality
A personalized approach not dictated by diagnosis requirements
Flexibility in the pace and focus of our work together
-
Some insurance plans offer out-of-network benefits. This means you may be able to receive partial reimbursement after paying for sessions.
I do not communicate with insurance companies directly, but I can provide a superbill (a detailed receipt of services) for you to submit independently.
If you’re unsure whether you have out-of-network benefits, here’s a simple way to find out:
Call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask:
Do I have out-of-network benefits for outpatient mental health therapy?
What percentage of the session fee would be reimbursed?
Do I have a deductible?
How do I submit a superbill?
The representative can walk you through the rest.
-
Cura Counseling offers a limited number of reduced-fee appointments based on financial need and availability.
Because these spots are limited, they may not always be open. If cost is a concern, I encourage you to reach out to inquire about current availability and to discuss your needs.

It’s completely normal to feel unsure. Many of my clients are beginning therapy for the first time. You don’t need to have everything figured out or perfectly explained. We can start wherever you are.
