Frequently Asked Questions
Who can benefit from therapy?
Do you accept insurance?
At Therayology we are insurance friendly!
We can often help you to use your insurance to offset the cost of therapy. Some of this depends on your particular benefits, yearly deductibles and reimbursement rates.
We can give you the information you need to check your benefits and find out if you can be reimbursed for our services or verify your insurance data base and share the information with you.
However, it is your responsibility to verify with your insurance how much you will pay, so before you make an appointment, contact your health insurance plan to verify how much you will need to pay for services and whether our provider is in your network.
Due to the cost and investment of therapy, it makes sense to find out if your medical benefits will cover mental health counseling.
Wat if you don't take my insurance. Can I still be seen?
We've partnered with Mentaya, a service that streamlines getting reimbursed for your therapy sessions through out-of-network benefits.

2. Our practice will enter your sessions into the platform.
3. Mentaya submits the claim and handles any insurance follow-up.
4. You get reimbursed by insurance! Mentaya charges a 5% fee per claim, but we will pay it so you can focus on being your best.
It's risk-free: They guarantee claims are successfully submitted.
How much will counseling cost?
Besides the financial cost or counseling, you also must take into consideration a commitment of time for counseling to be effective. So, ask yourself whether or not you can afford to delay getting the help you need.
Our fees are as follows:
Licensed therapist: $130-$225 for a 45–60-minute session
Pre-licensed therapist: $110-$160 for a 45-60-minute session.
Intern: $30 for a 45-60-minute session.
We are able to take credit/debit cards as well as Health Savings Account cards.
We can also advise you on how to get insurance reimbursement for out-of-network mental health services.
I have Medicaid or State insurance, can I be seen?
Yes! We believe in quality services for all individuals independently on their plan. We are in-network with Medicaid, Badgercare, and many Health Management Organizations (HMOs), including straight T-19. You can contact us, and we can help you find your insurance provider.
My partner and I are having problems. Should we be in individual counseling or come together?
When clients are concerned about their relationship and want to work with a therapist, we can arrange to work with more than one individual initially. After this work, if one of them would like to continue in individual sessions, the therapist, in collaboration with them will refer a member of the relationship to another professional. Moving from individual to couple’s work with the same therapist is not recommended because of potential trust issues.
How does it work? What do I have to do in sessions and how long will it take to get better?
Because each person has different issues and goals for therapy, the work will be different depending on the individual and their concerns. Our therapists tailor their therapeutic approach to the specific needs of the client. Everyone’s circumstances are unique to them, and the length of therapy to allow people to accomplish goals depends on the clients' desire for personal development, their commitment, and the factors driving them to seek therapy in the first place. However, many of our clients experience changes in their lives within six months.
