Most clients start with weekly sessions and the frequency changes based off of need, progress, and the demands of their season. Sport psychology services are still very effective at bi-weekly and longer intervals.
Our fees vary depending on the type of therapy and the duration of the session. Please contact us for more information about our fees and payment options. In addition, we feel passionate about keeping our services available and reserve a limited number of spots at a sliding scale fee (income dependent). If you feel you may qualify for our sliding scale please inquire about availibility.
Therapy and coaching sessions typically last for 50 minutes, but the duration may vary depending on the type of therapy and the needs of the client.
We work with kids as young as 10 to adulthood.
For therapy clients located within the state of Colorado we are in-network with Tricare, Select Health Colorado, and Aetna. While we don't accept other insurance directly, your insurance plan may have out-of-network benefits, which means that they will reimburse you for portion of the session cost. If you would prefer to utilize a company to help you manage utilizing your out-of-network benefits, we recommend Thrizer. They help to verify your out-of-network benefits and submit superbills. They will manage the reimbursement process end-to-end for you to save you the insurance headache. Once you meet your deductible, you can request an instant reimbursement to skip the insurance wait or receive reimbursements in a few weeks via direct deposit.
