Your healing
is worth investing in.
At Spring Grove Counseling, we believe your care should be shaped around you — not around what an insurance company decides is “medically necessary.” That’s why we operate as a self-pay practice. Below is a clear breakdown of what sessions cost and how to make the most of your investment.
Looking for a lower-cost option? Sessions with one of our associate therapists are $110 each. (Superbills aren’t available for sessions with associate therapists or interns.)

Self-pay
Why Self-Pay Works in Your Favor
- No diagnosis required on a permanent insurance record. Your care stays private.
- No insurer-imposed session limits. You and your therapist decide when you’re done — not a claims adjuster.
- Choice of any therapist on our team, regardless of what network they’re in.
- No prior-authorization delays. You can start the week you’re ready, not the week your insurer approves it.
- Keep your therapist even if your insurance coverage changes or you switch jobs.
Common insurances we accept: Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare
Some of our licensed therapists are in-network with Aetna, Cigna and UnitedHealthcare. For other plans, our care is self-pay. For regular sessions with a fully licensed therapist, we can give you a superbill to send to your insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Superbills aren’t available for intensives or for sessions with associate therapists or interns.
Lower-Fee Options
Cost shouldn’t be the reason you don’t get support. Our supervised graduate interns and associate therapists have lower fees (see the table above). Ask about openings during your Free 15-Minute Consultation.
Need a lower rate? Our intern therapists, Rachel and Von, offer pay-what-you-can sessions ($25 minimum). Learn more and request a spot.
cancellation/no-show
Late Cancellation & No-Show Policy
We require at least 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Cancellations made with less than 48 hours’ notice are considered late cancellations and are charged a $75 fee, and missed appointments (no-shows) are charged the full session fee.
A no-show occurs when a client misses their appointment, arrives more than 15 minutes late without notifying the office, or does not attend their scheduled session. Insurance cannot be billed for late cancellations or no-shows, and non-profit organizations cannot be billed for these charges. All these fees must be paid out of pocket.
Fees are charged because the reserved time cannot be rebooked or reimbursed. Clients are responsible for these fees unless an approved exception applies, such as illness, therapist cancellation, or other documented extenuating circumstances confirmed by the therapist.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Spring Grove Counseling accept limited insurance?
We accept limited insurance so we can provide more personalized and flexible care without restrictions from insurance companies. Many insurance plans require diagnoses, limit the number of sessions, or influence treatment decisions. By limiting insurance participation, we’re able to focus more fully on your goals, privacy, and long-term progress.
Can I use out-of-network benefits for therapy?
Yes, for regular sessions with a fully licensed therapist. Many clients use out-of-network benefits for partial reimbursement. We can give you a superbill to send to your insurance, depending on your plan. Superbills aren’t available for intensives or for sessions with associate therapists or interns.
What is the cancellation and no-show policy?
We ask for at least 48 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Appointments canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice are charged a $75 late cancellation fee, and missed appointments are charged the full session fee. These fees cannot be billed to insurance and must be paid out of pocket.

Your Right to a Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. Make sure your provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your service. You can also ask your provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
