Why should you pay cash when you have insurance?
Why choose Vickie

Investing in yourself,
so you can pour into others



You have fought the good fight and the struggle is real. Now, you are ready to talk with a professional. As you make your decision, you have three cost-related concerns, your privacy, monetary cost, and time cost. HIPPA regulations ensure that your therapist does not tell others about your problems, but that is not the only threat. Time is a non-renewable resource; The more time you spend in the chair of your therapist, the more money it will cost you. Let's consider them below.
Insurance payment for health care will cost your Privacy
There are therapists in the area who will give you a mental health diagnosis and charge your insurance. This diagnosis will be a permanent part of your medical record. If your employer pays for your insurance, they have access to the equivalent of a receipt and may know you went to an individual psychotherapy session. Additionally, insurance has the right to audit the details of your chart. You gave it to them when you signed the consent form to bill them. Some insurance companies will even claim ownership of your medical records, including those from your therapist. Explanation of benefits will be mailed to the primary insured (parents or spouse), which may lead to uncomfortable questions.
Insurance payment for health care will Cost you Time

Vickie will save you time
Most of my patients are usually better after five to ten sessions and have left their past behind them. However, many look for opportunities to thrive and as a result, choose to stay longer for talk therapy.
With Vickie, you will spend less money.
