Payment Options

All therapy services are private pay only and payment is due in full at the time of service. GulfView accepts most major credit cards (i.e., Visa, MasterCard, & Discover, American Express), including HSA/FSA cards, as well as cash.

We do not accept insurance (See FAQs page for more information). However, if you would like, we are more than happy to create a “superbill” for you to submit to your insurance company for them to reimburse you for Out of Network benefits. We cannot guarantee their reimbursement.

Reduced Fee- If you are requesting a reduced rate, this will be coordinated following your initial intake appointment - we do not reduce our rates for intakes.

Cancellation/Rescheduling Policy

If you do not show up for your scheduled therapy appointment, or requests to reschedule and you have not notified the office at least 24 hours in advance, you will be required to pay a "late cancellation” or “no-show fee" for the missed session - this will be equal to the cost of the missed/canceled appointment.

No Surprises Act

Effective January 1, 2022, a ruling went into effect called the "No Surprises Act," which requires mental health practitioners to provide a "Good Faith Estimate" (GFE) to patients who do not have insurance or patients who have insurance but are out-of-network.

The Good Faith Estimate's purpose is to show the cost of services to avoid an unreasonably large bill. Your treatment and cost of treatment will vary based on your individual needs, amount of therapy sessions needed/wanted, and the type and length of services you attend. Please remember you can always discuss billing, cost, treatment plan, length of sessions, and amount of sessions with me at any time.

Good Faith Estimate

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services.
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good FAith Estimate before you schedule a service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
