How To Request

Email lisa@groundedlightcounseling.com to ask about availability. We’ll talk through options respectfully and keep the process simple.

Insurance & Reimbursement

We are in-network with Aetna and United Healthcare. 

We are also actively working to contract with:

  • Medicare
  • Colorado Medicaid

In the meantime, you can still use your insurance benefits—many plans offer partial reimbursement for out-of-network providers. 

Verify Your Insurance Benefits

Before scheduling, it’s best to confirm what your plan covers. 

You might say:

“Hi, I’m calling to verify outpatient mental-health benefits for telehealth services. Can you help me with these questions?”

  1. Does my plan cover outpatient or behavioral-health telehealth?
  2. Do I have out-of-network benefits?
  3. What is my deductible, and have I met it?
  4. Do I need prior authorization or a referral?
  5. Is there a session limit per year?
  6. For a 55-minute individual therapy session (CPT 90837), what will my out-of-pocket cost be?

Please note: You’re ultimately responsible for verifying your coverage and any charges your insurer doesn’t pay. We will submit claims on your behalf and guide you through understanding your benefits—but we’ll need your accurate insurance details and help in confirming plan specifics so we can assist you effectively.

Payment Methods

We accept all major credit cards—processed securely through your SimplePractice client portal.

HSA/FSA cards are also welcome if your plan allows.

Cancellation Policy

To avoid a late-cancel fee, please cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours before your appointment.

Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice may incur a $75 fee.
