What happens if I am out-of-network?

Accessing out-of-network psychotherapy allows you to work with a specialized therapist even if they are not directly contracted with your insurance plan. To begin, contact your insurance provider and ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits, including your deductible, reimbursement rate, and whether preauthorization is required. Many insurance plans reimburse a percentage of the session fee once you meet your out-of-network deductible. You can then schedule therapy with an out-of-network psychotherapist, pay the session fee directly, and submit a superbill (an itemized receipt provided by the therapist) to your insurance company for reimbursement. Out-of-network psychotherapy is often chosen by individuals seeking specialized, evidence-based care such as ERP for OCD or CBT-E for eating disorders and offers greater flexibility, privacy, and provider choice, including access to telehealth psychotherapy.

Can you treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) via Telehealth?

Yes, ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) therapy can be effectively provided via telehealth, and it is a well-established, evidence-based approach for treating OCD. Telehealth ERP has been shown to be as effective as in-person treatment, while offering greater accessibility and flexibility. Through secure video sessions, clients engage in structured ERP treatment that includes psychoeducation about OCD, development of a personalized exposure hierarchy, live guided exposures, and response prevention strategies to reduce compulsions, reassurance-seeking, and avoidance. Telehealth ERP is especially effective because exposures can be practiced in real-world environments (such as the client’s home)making treatment highly relevant and practical. ERP via telehealth is commonly used to treat Harm OCD, ROCD, contamination OCD, checking OCD, and other OCD subtypes, and allows individuals to access specialized OCD treatment without geographic barriers.

Can you treat Eating Disorders via Telehealth?

CBT-E (Enhanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) can be effectively provided via telehealth, and it is a gold-standard, evidence-based treatment for eating disorders. CBT-E delivered through secure telehealth sessions has been shown to be highly effective while increasing access and continuity of care. Through telehealth CBT-E, clients work collaboratively with a specialized therapist to address disordered eating behaviors, body image concerns, and unhelpful thought patterns using structured, individualized treatment plans. Sessions focus on normalizing eating patterns, reducing eating-disorder behaviors, improving body image, and developing sustainable coping skills, all within the client’s real-world environment. CBT-E via telehealth is effective for treating anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and other specified feeding or eating disorders (OSFED), and allows individuals to receive specialized eating disorder treatment without the barriers of in-person care.
