Insight Counseling Collective practitioners do not accept insurance. However, our practitioners are considered "out of network" providers for some insurance plans. This means you may be able to be partially reimbursed by your insurance company for your sessions. To find out if your insurance company provides out-of-network benefits for mental health, please speak directly with your insurance provider. All of our practitioners can provide you with complementary superbills to submit to your insurance provider for partial reimbursement.

Our therapists charge various fees. Take a look at the “Our Therapists” page to find out the cost of meeting with your preferred provider.

At this time, Insight Counseling Collective therapists are providing online therapy services through a HIPAA-compliant platform called IntakeQ.

Yes! According to the American Psychological Association studies show that online therapy can be equally effective as in-person therapy. Your therapists can talk with you more about this in your initial session.

Going into your first therapy session can be both exciting and nerve-wracking. Here are some things you may find helpful to know beforehand:

The first session is usually focused on building a rapport with your therapist. They may ask you some introductory questions to get to know you better and understand your reasons for seeking therapy. Feel free to ask them questions as well to get a sense of their approach and experience.

It can be helpful to have a general idea of what you hope to achieve or work on during your sessions. This can provide a starting point for your therapist to tailor their approach to your needs.

Be prepared to be open and honest during your therapy sessions. Therapy is a safe space for you to express your thoughts, feelings, and concerns without judgment. The more open you are, the more your therapist can understand your situation and provide appropriate guidance.

Therapy can sometimes bring up difficult emotions as you explore sensitive topics. It's normal to experience a range of emotions during therapy sessions. Your therapist is trained to help you navigate these emotions and provide support along the way. Some clients also report experiencing a ‘vulnerability hangover’ after some sessions. If this happens to you, it is safe to bring it up to your therapist in your next session.

Therapy is a collaborative process, and your active participation is important. We encourage you to engage in the therapeutic process by sharing your thoughts, asking questions, and providing feedback. The more you actively participate, the more you can benefit from therapy.

The length of time a person spends in therapy can vary greatly depending on several factors, including the individual's specific needs, the type of therapy being pursued, the severity of the concerns, and the progress made during the therapeutic process. Some people may find that a few sessions or a brief period of therapy is sufficient to address their immediate concerns, while others may benefit from longer-term therapy.

It's important to discuss your therapy goals and expectations with your therapist. They will be better equipped to provide an estimate of how long therapy may take based on their professional expertise and an understanding of your unique situation.

Overall, therapy is a personalized process, and the duration can be influenced by many factors that are specific to you.

Online therapy can be a beneficial option for many individuals. However, there are certain circumstances or diagnoses for which in-person therapy may be recommended instead. Due to this, Insight Counseling Collective therapists do not work with people experiencing severe mental health crises. Some of these crises include but are not limited to active suicidal ideation, acute psychosis, or an immediate safety risk.

For people experiencing severe mental health crises, we recommend seeking high-acuity care. Here is a list of options for Washington State residents.

If you are experiencing a mental health emergency and/or are in need of immediate assistance, please call 988. For other emergency services, please call 911.

Absolutely! We offer individual therapy, couples/relational therapy, and sex therapy to adults across Washington State through online therapy. Additionally, we offer online premarital counseling, parent coaching, and career coaching to anyone in the USA.
