Paying for Therapy

plant
Your Healing, Your Investment

We understand that therapy is an investment in your well-being and future. At coeo, we aim to make this journey accessible and stress-free. While we don't partner directly with insurance companies, we support you in navigating out-of-network benefits and offer affordable therapy options tailored to your needs.

Your Payment Options

Private Pay

Paying out-of-pocket ensures flexibility and privacy, free from insurance limitations. We accept all major credit cards, HSA/FSA payments, and checks.

Out-of-Network Insurance Coverage

While coeo isn't in-network, many clients successfully use their out-of-network benefits to receive reimbursement for therapy.

Inclusive & Lower-Cost Options

Our therapy program with interns and pre-licensed therapists provides the same trauma-focused care at reduced rates. Everyone deserves access to compassionate, expert support.

What are Out-of-Network Benefits?

If your insurance plan offers out-of-network benefits, it means they will cover a portion of the cost when you see a therapist who doesn't have a direct contract with your insurance company.

 

Unlike in-network providers, who bill your insurance company directly, with out-of-network therapists, you typically pay for the session upfront and then submit a claim to your insurance for reimbursement.

 

Insurance companies often reimburse a percentage of the therapist's fee, usually after you meet an out-of-network deductible. For example, after you meet a $1,000 deductible, your insurance may reimburse 50-80% of the session cost.

 

Out-of-network benefits give you the flexibility to choose a therapist based on your needs and preferences, not just those in-network.

Understanding Superbills and Insurance Reimbursement

What is a Superbill?

A superbill is a detailed receipt for therapy, designed for out-of-pocket payers to request reimbursement from their insurance. It includes session details, provider information, and diagnosis codes—your golden ticket to potential reimbursement.

 

How It Works​​​

Your Role:

  • Submit the superbill to your insurance company and follow up, as every plan is unique.

coeo's Role:

  • We create your superbill and provide a letter to explain your therapy services to your insurance​.​​​​

Three Steps to Get Reimbursed

Check With Your Insurance Plan

Call your provider and ask:

  • "Do I have out-of-network benefits for therapy?"

  • "What percentage of costs will you reimburse?"

  • "What deductible must I meet?"

  • "Is pre-approval or additional paperwork required?"

Submit Your Superbill

Follow your insurance company’s submission guidelines (e.g., online, email, or mail).

two

Use coeo’s Support Letter

Things to Keep In Mind

Reimbursement isn't guaranteed and depends on your plan.

 

Keep copies of all correspondence with your insurance.

  • How long does therapy take?
    The duration and longevity of therapy depend on many factors like your needs and readiness for change, length of our sessions, cadence of sessions, and engagement in the therapeutic process. You and your therapist will typically start with weekly or bi-weekly sessions, but this can change and flex throughout your time together. We are 100% dedicated to providing healing, personal empowerment, safe and healthy relationships, and getting our clients out of therapy as quickly and clinically recommended as possible. We like to joke that our job is actually to put ourselves out of business. We won't keep you in therapy just to keep you in therapy. The long and short of it, there is no answer to this question. It is completely dependent on you, and what you need. We want our clients' to feel a sense of health and freedom in all areas of their life.
  • What if I don’t like my therapist?
    We dare you to try. Kidding, of course. Sometimes two human just don't click. If that happens during our work together we will ensure there is a smooth handoff with another therapist that is more your style.
  • How often should I attend therapy?
    Therapy frequency varies by individual. Some clients benefit from weekly sessions, while others attend bi-weekly or monthly. Your therapist will collaborate with you to determine the best schedule.
  • Do you offer virtual therapy? What if we want to meet in-person?
    Yes! We provide virtual therapy sessions for clients who prefer to meet from the comfort of their homes. In-person sessions are also available at our Collegeville, PA, office.

  • What about sessions? What are they like?
    Typically, sessions are 50 minutes. But we can make sessions longer (or shorter) if we decide that changing the session length would be helpful. The first session looks pretty standard as we get to know each other, and learn more about what life looks like for you and how we can work together to build a life congruent with your most authentic self. You and your therapist will discuss recommended treatment, set goals for therapy, frequency of sessions, how to make appointments, contact us, etc. Sessions after that are largely driven by you, and your needs. We strive to meet you wherever you are in your journey so sessions will look a little different each time.
  • What if I don't feel like coming to a session?
    Therapy can be tough sometimes and you might be hesitant to come for a session. We get it. We know that motivation can ebb and flow and that sometimes you are just tired. It's our job to recognize when to push and when to keep a session light. We fully believe in meeting clients where they are, both on intake and throughout the therapeutic relationship. However, if you need to cancel, we ask that you do so 24 hours prior to the session time or you will be charged for the session.

    coeo, llc is dedicated to honoring our client's time and financial needs. We are committed to providing exceptional therapy within the appropriate clinical timeframe, ensuring our clients heal and thrive in the world as soon as possible.
