Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ's) What hours are you available? During the week, we offer counseling during the day up to late afternoon hours.
Generally, Pam schedules clients on Tuesdays and Thursdays; Chad schedules appointments on Fridays and every
other Saturdays.
Do
you take credit and debit cards? Yes.
We accept cash, check, debit cards, and credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, and Discover).
How much do you charge for each session? The first appointment (intake appointment) is $125.
Individual counseling is $100 and couples counseling or family counseling is $120. These are 50 minute sessions.
Sometimes, some clients would like to schedule a half hour consultation; 30-minute sessions are $50.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes; Pam is an in-network provider for Aetna and Harmony Healthcare
(including Culinary, Health Plan of Nevada and MGM); Pam is waiting confirmation
(in the middle of the credentialing process) with Cigna, Humana, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. If you have a different
insurance, both Chad and Pam can bill your insurance as out-of-network providers if you have the
PPO option for your insurance vs. the HMO. Upon request, they can also provide a superbill
(billing statements) that you may submit to your insurance for reimbursement. But if you want
to use your insurance, please consider the following issues that can come up:
Lack of confidentiality. Insurance companies
require diagnosis and other treatment information to determine benefits and authorize treatment. Difficulty getting treatment authorized. Every plan has different requirements and standards
for authorizations. There is often a lengthy process in getting authorization for treatment. This can cause
your treatment to be inconsistent, broken up, and cause further delays in getting the help you need.
Please note that some insurance do not cover marriage
counseling, family counseling, or adjustment counseling, unless they are part of the treatment plan for a serious mental disorder
or drug/alcohol problem.
What do the initials (e.g., NCC, MFT, LCADC, MAC) after your names mean? Therapists and counselors list their

intake paperwork before my appointment? Yes,
