Getting Started
To start your counseling journey, call and set up a free 15-minute consultation at 806.553.4389, or email me at natesmithcounseling@gmail.com
In our first phone call, we will talk about the nature of your difficulty, if online counseling is a good fit for you, your history in counseling, and other introductory information.
Please note that my counseling practice is completely online and I do not maintain a private brick-and-mortar office. Also, I do not currently accept private insurance. I accept credit card and cash pay app (Paypal and Venmo).
If we decide that my online counseling fit your needs, I will send you an introductory email with a video to guide you through the process to set up for our first session. I will walk you through every step of getting started.
Fee, Insurance, and What to Expect:
The charge for your initial session is $80 for individuals/$100 for couples and the charge for any subsequent sessions is $80 for individual/ $100 for couple sessions per 50-minutes session is expected at the time of service by credit card or cash app.
Sliding scale fee is available on a session for adults on a limited basis.
Insurance:
I am an out-of-network provider and therefore do not directly accept insurance.
Rather than going back and forth with insurance companies all day, I want to focus on providing the absolute highest level of service to my clients.
I can provide you with a billing statement at the end of each month to be submitted for reimbursement if you have PPO, HSA, or other flexible health care benefits. This works well for many of my clients.
Some clients have found the option of working with a service called Better (getbetter.co) to help make sure their claims are reimbursed.
My out-of-pocket fees is consistent with other mental health professionals in the area.
Please contact us for more information.
Payment is accepted in the form of a credit card and is due at the beginning of each session.
