Therapy Fees & Billing Information for Idaho & Arizona Clients

Before beginning therapy, I offer a free 15-minute consultation by phone or video. This gives us a chance to talk briefly about what’s bringing you in, what you hope to experience in therapy, and whether my approach feels like a good fit for your needs.

There’s no pressure or commitment — simply a calm space to ask questions and get a sense of what working together might be like.

Idaho clients: Consultations can be scheduled through my SimplePractice portal.

Arizona clients: All consultations and scheduling is coordinated through Healing Hearts Counseling.

In Arizona, therapy is offered through Healing Hearts Counseling on a private-pay basis. Fee and payment information is included directly in your informed consent, which you will receive before beginning services. A standard psychotherapy session (50–60 minutes) is provided for individuals. Full fee details, payment policies, and cancellation guidelines are outlined in your consent documents so you always know what to expect. I am committed to transparency in all financial matters, and you will receive clear written information before we begin.

Sessions are available through secure telehealth for adults located anywhere in the state.

Extended sessions are available when additional time would support EMDR processing or deeper trauma work. These appointments are billed at a prorated rate based on length and are discussed in advance.

A limited number of sliding-scale spots are available for clients experiencing financial hardship, and availability is reviewed periodically. If you have questions about fees or your particular circumstances, I’m happy to talk with you.

In Idaho, therapy services are offered through Sunny Rourke Counseling on a private-pay basis, with select insurance plans accepted. All clients receive a written financial agreement before beginning services that clearly outlines session rates, payment expectations, and cancellation policies. Standard individual psychotherapy sessions are 50–60 minutes. Full fee information is provided prior to scheduling so you know what to expect from the start.

Sessions are available in person in Boise, Idaho, as well as statewide via secure telehealth for adults located anywhere in Idaho.

Extended sessions may be offered when additional time would support EMDR processing or more in-depth trauma work. These appointments are billed at a prorated rate based on session length and are discussed in advance.

A limited number of sliding-scale spots are available for clients experiencing financial hardship, with availability reviewed periodically. If you have questions about fees or your specific circumstances, you’re welcome to reach out for a brief conversation.

Payment is due at the time of service. Accepted forms of payment include:

• Credit or debit cards

• HSA/FSA cards (Health Savings or Flexible Spending Accounts)

All payments are processed securely through the electronic health record platform.

Idaho Clients
I accept select insurance plans for services provided in Idaho. If your insurance plan offers out-of-network mental health benefits, I can also provide a superbill—a detailed receipt you may submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

Arizona Clients
For services provided in Arizona, I am unable to bill insurance directly. Arizona clients are seen on a private-pay basis. If your plan offers out-of-network mental health reimbursement, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company.

Out-of-network benefits, reimbursement amounts, and eligibility vary by plan. If you are considering using out-of-network benefits, I recommend contacting your insurance provider to ask:

• Whether out-of-network mental health services are covered
• What percentage of the session fee may be reimbursed
• Whether preauthorization is required

I’m happy to provide a brief guide to help you navigate these questions with your insurance representative.

Under the No Surprises Act, clients who are not using insurance have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining expected therapy costs.

This estimate is provided after your intake session and before ongoing therapy begins. It includes the expected cost of sessions based on your individualized plan of care. If your treatment plan changes or extends, an updated estimate can be provided at any time.

You can learn more about your rights under the No Surprises Act on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) website.

Your appointment time is set aside specifically for you. If you need to cancel or reschedule, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice to avoid being charged the full session fee.

I recognize that illness, emergencies, and unexpected situations can arise. When something unavoidable happens, we’ll discuss it with understanding and care.

Arizona clients: Cancellations and rescheduling are managed through Healing Hearts Counseling or by calling/texting (480) 656-7174.

Idaho clients: Cancellations and rescheduling are managed directly through my SimplePractice portal or by texting (208) 477-1302.

Clear communication about cost and scheduling is part of the trust we build together.

You’re welcome to ask questions about fees, billing, or documentation for out-of-network claims at any time.
Before starting therapy, we’ll review all financial information together so you know exactly what to expect — no surprises, ever.
