Insurance Coverage

Veritas Well-Being, PLLC is a fee-for-service practice where payment is due in full at the time of your session.

The therapists at Veritas Well-Being, PLLC do not accept Medicare or Medicaid. Christy Aletky is a Certified Tricare Provider meaning that she can accept Tricare out of network. Other than Tricare, Christy may be considered an out-of-network provider for some insurance plans. If you have out-of-network benefits, you may receive some reimbursement for our services if you submit claims directly with your insurance company.

The amount that insurance companies reimburse for “out-of-network” services varies by plan. We recommend calling your insurance company before your first appointment and discussing your benefits.

Please note that insurance plans do not typically reimburse for services provided by an intern or therapist in training.

What if Counselor X isn’t the right counselor for me?

We don’t actually have a counselor named Counselor X, but we’re pretty sure that if we did, they would be a Badass! Seriously though, one of the great things about choosing private pay, private practice counseling is that you get to choose your therapist. At Veritas Well-Being we’re committed to making sure you find the right fit for you. It’s even possible that our practice isn’t the best fit for you, and if that’s the case, we’ll always strive to make an appropriate referral. Above all else, we want you to get what you need to heal.

What should I expect in a counseling session?

Your first two sessions will likely focus on assessment. We may have you fill out forms, and we’ll definitely ask you lots of questions to figure out your goals and pain points. Once we’ve established an accurate picture of your situation we’ll recommend a treatment plan which will guide our further sessions. We use several different modalities in session including EMDR, ACT, iRest, Mindfulness, and various other techniques.

How much does counseling cost?

Counseling at Veritas Well-Being ranges from provider to provider for individual counseling. Rates increase for couples and longer sessions. Please refer to our Rates and Insurance page for the most current pricing for each provider. Often 90-minutes sessions are indicated for some clients, and on occasion, with trauma work, longer sessions may be indicated. Pricing for these sessions will be provided to you before beginning so that you understand exactly how much your treatment will cost.

How do I pay for sessions?

It is important to understand that Veritas Well-Being is a cash-pay counseling center. We are not in-network with any insurance providers. Depending on the credentials of your counselor you may be able to submit your bills to your insurance provider for partial reimbursement. Your counseling fees may apply toward your out-of-network deductible even if you do not qualify for reimbursement. All of this will vary based on your insurance plan. One option is to work with the app Better to submit your bills to your insurance company. We don’t make any money from working with Better, but they do make things easier. You can also use your FSA and HSA plans to pay for counseling, making your counseling expenses pre-tax.
