Do You Offer Pre-Marriage Counseling?  

We appreciate that before walking down the aisle, you want to ensure you have a strong base to conquer any of life’s stressors and issues head-on. We work with couples who are planning to get married at some point and want to work towards feeling strong within this next step of their life. Many who seek out couples counseling or pre-marital counseling also want to discuss expectations around how the relationship will function, what will happen during disagreements, and also how to effectively parent if and when that is part of a couple’s plan.

 

At Modern Intimacy, our therapists are experienced and qualified to help couples prepare for this exciting season of life and feel secure with each other as they make a major transition together.

Do You Accept Insurance? How Much Does Couples Therapy Cost?

At this time, Modern Intimacy is not paneled with any insurance providers and as such, we are considered “out of network.” While we do not accept insurance as a form of payment, we can provide what’s called a “superbill” which can oftentimes be submitted to most insurance providers for “out of network reimbursement.” This means that payment is out of pocket and due at the end of the session, however, by submitting superbills to your insurance provider, you may be able to get some of the money you invest into your sessions back in your pocket, directly from your insurance provider. There are various factors that will determine if and how you are eligible for reimbursement so it’s important that you call your insurance provider to get a full understanding of the details that are pertinent to your exact plan, as this process can look different depending on the insurance company, your exact plan/benefits, and other factors. 

In terms of our costs for services, the rate for couples therapy depends on the therapist and their credentials, level of education, and additional certifications/specializations. At Modern Intimacy, we have therapists on our team at every level of education so we can offer a variety of price ranges, depending on your financial needs.
