Dementia and Caregiver Therapy FAQs & Rates

Emerald Green Therapy is a boutique, private-pay therapy practice specializing in dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and caregiver support. My goal is to provide high-touch, specialized care that supports individuals and families through the emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges of neurodegenerative illness.

​

What can I expect to pay?

Standard Therapy Session (55 minutes): $225
Intensive Therapy Sessions (90–180 minutes): $350–$650

Intensive sessions are designed for families, complex caregiving dynamics, crisis support, or extended consultation and care planning. These sessions provide in-depth guidance and support tailored to the unique needs of dementia and caregiving.

Therapy is an investment in clarity, support, and well-being for you and your family. My work focuses on specialized dementia and caregiver care that often extends beyond what is offered in general therapy settings.

​

Do you accept insurance?

Emerald Green Therapy is a private-pay practice and does not bill insurance directly.

Insurance companies often require a mental health diagnosis and detailed documentation to authorize treatment. Many caregivers and individuals impacted by dementia prefer the privacy, flexibility, and individualized care that private-pay therapy allows.

If you have out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.​

​

How do I pay for sessions?

I accept major credit cards, HSA/FSA cards, and other secure electronic payment methods. Payment is due at the time of service unless otherwise arranged.

Superbills are available upon request for clients seeking out-of-network reimbursement.

​

What is a superbill?

A superbill is a detailed receipt that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement if you have out-of-network benefits. Reimbursement rates vary by plan and insurer, and I encourage you to contact your insurance provider for details.

​

Do you offer telehealth or telephone therapy?

Yes. I provide secure telehealth therapy via video as well as telephone sessions for individuals and families who are physically located in the states where I am licensed.

I am licensed to provide telehealth therapy in:
Illinois, Michigan, Texas, Oregon, and Florida.

You must be physically located in one of these states at the time of your session.

​

What is the No Surprises Act?

The No Surprises Act is a federal law that requires health care providers to give uninsured and self-pay clients a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges. If you would like a Good Faith Estimate, please let me know and I will provide one prior to services.

​

How do I get started?

The best way to begin is with a free 15-minute consultation call. This brief conversation allows us to discuss your goals, answer questions about therapy and fees, and determine if we are a good fit.

​​

​​​Is this service for emergencies?

Emerald Green Therapy is a non-emergency, outpatient therapy practice. I do not provide crisis or emergency services. If you or a loved one are experiencing a mental health emergency, please call 911, go to the nearest emergency department, or contact the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988 in the U.S.).
