Advantages of paying for mental health services out of pocket:
In the age of managed care, insurance companies control a great deal of decisions regarding your mental health care:
They put stipulations on
-which therapists you can see
-how many sessions you receive
-if you need prior approval to see a therapist
-which treatment techniques/modalities are covered
Also, a diagnosis is required when seeking treatment through insurance companies. This diagnosis stays on your medical record. Often times, when seeking counseling there is no true diagnosis (relationship issues, stress, etc.)
Paying out of pocket puts you in charge of your care and removes limits the therapist encounters with insurance companies. We have found many insurance plans have high deductibles and copays, which actually makes paying out of pocket the cheaper alternative.
