Do You Understand Your Out-of-Network Insurance Benefits? Could You Be Limiting Your Access to Speciality Medical Providers?
At Coriander Living Collective (CLC) we are a private pay for services (self-pay) business accepting credit, debit, HSA, or FLEX funds. We believe as a client this offers you the highest level of care and affords you certain advantages over using health insurance or a third party payer. This does not automatically mean you will need to 100% pay for therapy sessions fully out-of-your pocket. IF you have an out-of-network benefit on your insurance plan, CLC can schedule for you to receive a monthly superbill. The superbill includes all the information that your insurance company would require to process an out-of-network claim, to reimburse you how your plan allows.
Is Private Paying for Counseling and Psychotherapy Worth It?

BEYOND TALK THERAPY: Is Brainspotting Better Than Talk Therapy?
Talk therapy absolutely can be beneficial and uses our higher thinking brains. Yet as some point, talk therapy is limited because it is not able to access the lower parts of the brain where we hold stress and trauma responses. Talk therapy alone is often not enough to heal human issues.
