What Does it Cost?
Mental Health insurance policies (Medical Assistance, Medicare, private insurance, etc.) can cover some or all of the costs depending on the service(s) received.

Fees are based upon income and the individual or family is aware of all costs up front. However, all services can be arranged regardless of an individual's ability to pay.
