Navigating therapy costs and insurance can feel confusing, but understanding your options makes it much easier.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• What “in-network” and “out-of-network” (OON) mean when it comes to therapy

• How insurance coverage works differently for in-network vs. OON providers

• Why some therapists choose to be in-network while others work OON

• The pros and cons of each option, from affordability to flexibility to choice of provider

• Why many clients decide to use OON benefits despite higher upfront costs

• What questions to ask a therapist about their insurance status

• Practical advice for deciding whether an in-network or OON provider is the right fit for you

Join us as we break down the mystery of insurance and therapy, and give you clear guidance so you can make informed decisions that fit your needs, budget, and goals.
