Peaceful Insight Counseling | Therapy in Georgia

At Peaceful Insight Counseling, we believe that quality mental health care should be transparent and accessible. Whether you are seeking therapy using insurance or private pay counseling services, we are committed to helping you understand the cost of therapy and your available payment options.

Our practice provides telehealth therapy services across Georgia for individuals, couples, and families seeking support for anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma, and emotional wellness.

Cost of Therapy | Private Pay Counseling

If you prefer not to use insurance or are seeking out-of-network therapy services, private pay counseling sessions are available.

Private pay rates may vary depending on the type of service provided, such as:

• Individual therapy

• Couples counseling

• Family therapy

• Clinical supervision

To learn more about private pay therapy rates, please contact our office directly. We are happy to discuss current rates and help determine the best option for your needs.

Good Faith Estimate (No Surprises Act)

Under the No Surprises Act, clients who pay for therapy without insurance are entitled to receive a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) outlining the expected cost of services.

A Good Faith Estimate for therapy services helps you understand your anticipated mental health expenses before beginning treatment. This federal regulation is designed to provide transparency and protect clients from unexpected medical bills.

Because therapy is personalized, the total number of sessions needed varies for each person. Some clients seek short-term counseling to manage symptoms of anxiety or stress, while others continue therapy longer to support deeper healing and personal growth. Many individuals also choose to schedule periodic sessions for continued support.

Once you schedule an appointment, your Good Faith Estimate will be available through the SimplePractice client portal. Current self-pay or out-of-network clients may also request a Good Faith Estimate at any time.
