  • Not at the moment.

    We attempt to make counseling as affordable as possible for all people. We offer a tiered approach to our session fees, based on the experience of each of the clinicians on our team.

  • No.

    We are not currently paneled with insurance companies, but we have worked to set session fees at a rate that is fairly close to the co-pay that most people would incur if they were using their insurance. 

  • Yes.

    We are happy to provide a Superbill for any session that happens at Common Well. However, please check with your insurance company whether they will reimburse for sessions with a pre-licensed clinician, as most of our therapists are currently pre-licensed. 

  • No.

    For ethical purposes, we do not allow clients to seek multiple kinds of therapy from the same therapist (e.g., seeing the same therapist for both Individual and Couples Therapy)

  • It’s case by case.

    The answer to this question typically depends on the nature of the work you hope to do with your counselor. We recommend that any new client plan on sticking with the process for at least 12-15 weekly sessions. This gives both the client and the clinician to get a good sense for the goals the client would like to work toward and gives enough time for good work to be accomplished. Many people find that meeting with someone is so helpful that they continue the process well beyond 15 sessions. But, ultimately, the decision of how long to be in therapy is up to the client.
