How can I get my insurace to pay for therapy?

First of all, it is important to distinguish between therapy and counselling. If you have a psychological diagnosis or get one from me (according to ICD-10), it is clearly a therapy. If you do not suffer from a psychological disorder, it is counselling. Counselling is not a medical service and is therefore not covered by health insurance. The same applies to couple therapy (even if one of the partners suffers from a disorder).

Currently, my therapy is only paid for by private insurance or supplementary insurance. To begin the process of reimbursement, please check with your insurance company about their terms (often linked to how they bill) before you begin therapy with me. After you have received the necessary information, please feel free to contact me so that I can accommodate your insurance company’s requirements.
