Common Questions — Answered.
Am I committing to anything by reaching out?
Not at all. Reaching out just starts a conversation. There's no obligation to schedule — we'll answer your questions and let you decide at your own pace.
Will my insurance be accepted?
We accept most major insurance plans including BCBS, Aetna, Medicaid, Medicare, and more. We'll verify your coverage before you schedule — no surprises.
Is my information kept private?
Absolutely. All information shared through our intake process is handled with full HIPAA-compliant confidentiality. Your privacy is protected from your first message.
How do I know which therapist is right for me?
That's our job. Our team will ask about your needs and preferences and match you with the therapist best suited to what you're working through. You can also browse our team page first.
How quickly can I be seen?
Most clients are matched and scheduled quickly — no waitlist for most insurance plans in Billings. The main factor is completing intake paperwork, which we'll walk you through.
Do I have to come in person?
Nope. We offer both in-person sessions at our Billings office and telehealth for anyone in Montana. Many clients prefer telehealth for the flexibility it offers.
You Don't Have to Figure This Out Alone.
Reaching out is the hardest part. Our team in Billings makes everything after that as simple as possible. We'll meet you where you are.
