FAQs

  • Therapy sessions at Elevate combine elements of traditional talk therapy with creative, expressive strategies such as improvisational movement, aerial dance, drawing, painting, collaging and writing. EMDR therapy is also an option. Somatic techniques for emotion regulation, including breathwork, restorative and aerial yoga are also utilized.

  • No, clients do not need to have any special athletic or artistic abilities to participate in therapy. Movement and art are creative means to examine and understand the life narrative outside of language; the focus is on process and not product.

  • Elevate does not accept insurance, participate in any insurance network, bill insurance companies, communicate with insurance companies, or accept payment from insurance companies. If you choose, Elevate can provide you with a Superbill as an Out of Network (OON) provider for you to submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.

  • Increased Flexibility and Choice: As a private pay practice, Elevate has the freedom to tailor therapy sessions to meet your specific needs without the limitations imposed by insurance panels. This allows for more personalized and effective therapy, with the focus on what matters most to you.

    Expedited Access to Care: As a private pay client, you have the advantage of receiving services promptly without worrying about the lengthy approval process and administrative hassles imposed by insurance companies. This means you can start therapy sooner and receive the support you need without unnecessary delays.

    Enhanced Privacy and Confidentiality: As a private pay practice, Elevate prioritizes your privacy and confidentiality. Since Elevate does not have to involve insurance companies, your personal information remains securely within the therapeutic relationship. Insurance companies often limit coverage to services deemed "medically necessary," which can restrict the scope of your care. Additionally, utilizing insurance necessitates a mental health diagnosis being documented in your permanent health record. As a private pay practice, your sessions and progress stay confidential.

    Customized Treatment Approach: Without the constraints imposed by insurance requirements, a broader range of therapeutic modalities and techniques that best align with your unique goals and preferences can be explored. This flexibility allows for a more tailored and effective treatment experience.

    Seamless Payment Process: Working with Elevate as a private pay practice means you have a streamlined and hassle-free payment process. With a credit card on file, you don't need to worry about submitting claims or waiting for reimbursement. Payments are automatically processed, allowing you to focus solely on your therapeutic journey.
