Start Your Intake
A note on cost & credentialing. If your counselor is still completing credentialing with your insurance, you can begin at our self-pay rate in the meantime, then move to your insurance once it is approved. Our front desk is glad to walk you through what applies to you. No one is turned away for an inability to pay — our Samaritan Fund helps clients with high co-pays or without insurance. Just ask.

Insurance We Accept

We accept most major health insurance plans, along with self-pay. We do not accept EAP plans.

Your counselor will take time to understand your story, what brought you in, and what you hope for. There is no pressure to have it all figured out.

As Counseling Continues

You will meet regularly and check in on your goals together, adjusting along the way. Progress looks different for everyone, and that is okay.

Resources Along the Way

Between sessions, our client portal and the Tom Rodgerson Resource Library offer tools and encouragement to support your growth.

What kind of counseling do you offer?▾
CentrePointe counselors are trained in the same theories and techniques as other mental-health professionals, and can also integrate spiritual issues with treatment when that is helpful to you. We serve individuals, couples, and families across a wide range of concerns.
Will my counseling be confidential?▾
Yes. All client information and records are confidential within the boundaries and standards of professional and legal requirements. Please see our Client Information Packet for HIPAA privacy notices.
How much does it cost?▾
Fees are based on reasonable and customary costs, and health insurance may cover them. When insurance does not, grants through our Samaritan Fund may be available to make counseling affordable.
How long are sessions and how often do we meet?▾
Sessions are 50 minutes in length and usually occur weekly, though your counselor will tailor the schedule to your needs.
Do you offer evening or weekend appointments?▾
Yes. Many of our counselors offer evening and weekend appointments. Because these hours are in demand, you will discuss availability with your counselor during your initial call.
How do I get started?▾
Fill out the Appointment Request Form below or call us at (800) 491-5369 ext. 120. One of our counselors will return your call to answer your questions and, if you wish, schedule your first appointment.
