Your specific copay, coinsurance, and deductible depend on your individual plan. We are happy to help verify your benefits before your first session.
Self-Pay Rates
If you do not have insurance, choose not to use insurance, or prefer the added privacy of self-pay, our standard rates are below. Payment is collected at the time of service via the card on file (credit, debit, HSA, or FSA accepted).
| Service | Rate | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Free 15-minute consultation | Free | Phone or video. No commitment. |
| Individual therapy session (50–60 min) | $120 | Includes intake and ongoing sessions. |
| Couples therapy session (50–60 min) | $150 | For couples and partners. |
| Family therapy session (50–60 min) | $150 | For families and households. |
Rates may vary by provider and length of session. If you are uninsured or paying out of pocket, you are entitled to a written Good Faith Estimate of expected charges under the federal No Surprises Act.
Sliding Scale
We hold a limited number of reduced-fee slots for clients experiencing financial hardship. Sliding-scale fees range from $50 to $80 per session, determined collaboratively based on household income and need.
Sliding-scale spots fill quickly. If none are currently available, we will keep you on a waitlist and offer referrals to other affordable options in Boulder County in the meantime, including Mental Health Partners and the Second Wind Fund of Colorado.
To request a sliding-scale slot, please mention it during your free consultation or email ashton@ashtonmentalhealth.com.
Out-of-Network Benefits
If we are not in-network with your insurance, you may still be eligible for partial reimbursement through your plan's out-of-network mental health benefits. We provide a monthly superbill — an itemized receipt with all of the codes your insurer needs — that you can submit for reimbursement.
Call the member services number on the back of your insurance card and ask:
- Do I have out-of-network outpatient mental health benefits?
- What is my out-of-network deductible, and how much have I met?
- What percentage of the session fee is reimbursed after the deductible?
- Is pre-authorization required?
- How do I submit a superbill for reimbursement?
Verify Your Benefits
Insurance can be confusing — we can help. If you would like us to verify your benefits before your first session, reach out by phone, text, or email with your insurance information and we will get back to you with what to expect.
