» Before You Begin
Clients participate in a brief consultation phone call which allows them to set their own rate for services. There is no minimum and the rate is the decision of the client based on their financial needs. During this call, you will schedule your intake assessment and will also gain access to a Patient Portal Account.
» Intake Assessment
When working with a graduate level intern, the cost of services are set by the client during the consultation call with our client care coordinator
» Your First Session
Clients working with providers through our affordable online therapy program are provided with the care and dedication as all the clients at Mind by Design. Clients participate in their “intake “session”, which involves a 60-90 minute assessment to comprehend your needs and goals.
» Follow-Up Sessions
Together, you and your therapist will create a schedule that works to meet on a weekly basis.
Each follow up session is 50 minutes long and hosted on our HIPAA compliant tele-therapy platform through the Patient Portal.
As out-of-network providers, we work with our clients to ensure that any potential out-of-network benefits are accessible to you. Contact us today to learn about OON benefits & mental health services
During that first call, we’ll ask you a bit about yourself, what you’re looking to gain from therapy and see if, and how we could help you. We’ll tell you a bit about our practice, our values and our approach. If you feel like we’re a good fit, we’ll go ahead and schedule your appointment with our online therapist.

We provide”Courtesy Billing” for clients who are using the Out-of-network insurance benefits.
Our Insurance Page shares a small blurb about Why We Left Insurance Panels
When using OON benefits, patients typically pay the full cost of the treatment upfront and then file a claim with their insurance company for reimbursement. The amount of reimbursement can vary depending on the plan, but it can sometimes be as high as 90%. Call your insurance to see if you have OON benefits or click here to call us and we can check for you!
Online therapy is essentially face-to-face counseling, just conducted remotely. Studies show that tele-therapy is as effective as traditional counseling. Professional organizations and state governments recognize its benefits and have set regulations for it. However, like any therapy, its success in achieving your goals isn’t guaranteed. It’s important to discuss with your therapist whether tele-therapy is working for you.
Showing up is all that you need to do! But if you really want to get the most out of session, it could help to take some time to think about what you want from therapy. It helps to write down your goals, questions you have or things that you feel are important to share.
of course! though we have some unconventional therapy approaches, we are rooted in evidenced based practices. Talk therapy is a major player in the therapy room! See What we Treat and Integrative Services for more information
Online therapy might not be as effective for individuals with chronic suicidal thoughts, severe trauma, significant mental health history, or those recently in intensive care. Such cases often benefit more from traditional, in-person counseling. We’ll help you decide if our online services are right for you during your intake and evaluation.
