Do you accept health insurance?

Utilizing your out-of-network benefits is another great option for other insurance companies. Many companies reimburse you when you utilize out-of-network benefits. Here’s a list of questions in order for you to check on this possibility:

  1. Do I have out-of-network mental health benefits?
  2. If so, what is my deductible?
  3. What percentage is reimbursed if I pay my provider out-of-pocket and get reimbursed by the insurance company?

  4. Is there a limit on how many sessions I have per year?



What is the fee per session?

When paying out-of-pocket or using out-of-network benefits, Stable Living charges the following fee for either in-office or equine-assisted work

  • $160/hour session
  • Under certain circumstances, we consider a sliding scale. Please call—we’d be happy to discuss this option with you!



How do I pay?

We accept cash, check or credit card.



What is your Cancellation Policy?

A 24-hour advance notice is required for canceling individual appointments and 48 hour advance notice if canceling a 2 hour session. If you have not notified us at least 24 or 48 hours in advance, you will be required to pay a $125/hour late cancel fee. Please be aware that this fee cannot be submitted for reimbursement to any insurance companies and will need to be paid out of pocket by the client.



How often would we meet?

For the best therapeutic results, we recommend meeting once a week for the first few months and then reevaluate our treatment goals and timeline. With that said, each person is unique and everyone’s needs are different. We also understand your challenge of juggling busy schedules! Let’s collaborate and find what works best for you in order to meet your goals while managing your hectic life. We offer evening and weekend appointments to help accommodate your schedule.
