Self-pay Options

You do not have to use insurance to start therapy. Self-pay, sometimes called private pay, means paying your therapist directly rather than billing a health insurance plan.

Clients choose self-pay for different reasons. Your preferred therapist may not participate with your insurance, you may not have applicable mental health benefits, or you may simply prefer to pay directly for your care. Whatever the reason, the goal is the same: finding therapy that works for you.

Self-pay rates can vary by clinician and service at Origins Counseling & Wellness. Review the current information on your therapist's profile or contact Origins before scheduling so you understand the fee for your care. If cost is a concern, you can also explore whether a clinician offers a sliding scale or whether your insurance includes out-of-network benefits.
