All appointments are currently self-pay only. Invoices to submit to insurance for reimbursement are available on request. Sliding scale may be available in some instances.

Forms of payment include checks, cash, credit/debit cards for payment Payment is due the day before the day of service.

Reasons We Currently Do Not Accept Insurance:

1. It does not allow for complete confidentiality as you have to disclose your private information to insurance companies
2. It assumes you have an illness that needs a diagnosis. (not all clients coming to therapy are seeking a diagnosis nor want one)
   
3. Retroactive denial of claims, which include delayed payments.
   

"Ericka is amazing! I first attended a group session that she was doing. It is not in my comfort zone to engage in a group setting, but Ericka makes you feel comfortable and safe. I left every session amazed at her capability, compassion, and knowledge for helping people."

— Gayle

"Ericka has hosted multiple small group mental health sessions at our church. I am amazed at her ability to connect with, empathize, and help people work through struggles they face. All who have attended these sessions have raved about how amazing and helpful it was. I would highly recommend her services for EVERYONE!"
