INSURANCE AT QUEER TALK

Your Care. Your Choice. No Barriers

I work with insurance in a way that keeps your care centered on you, not on billing codes. I am in network with select insurance plans in Illinois, and more will continue to come online over time. This page stays updated so you always have a clear sense of how coverage works here.

INSURANCE AT QUEER TALK

THERAPY WITHOUT THE STATIC

SESSION RATES & PAYMENT

Therapy Sessions are $190 for 60 minutes.

Gender Dysphoria Assessments are $190.

When using in network plans, your cost per session is determined by your benefits. It may be a copay, a coinsurance amount, or the full contracted rate until your deductible is met.

Payment is handled securely through the client portal. Credit cards, HSA, and FSA cards are accepted.

If cost is a concern, we can talk through your options so money is clear before we start, not a surprise later.

COURTESY CLAIMS

NO CLIENT SHOULD LOSE TIME ON PAPERWORK

Insurance is confusing enough. You should not have to spend your sessions worrying about forms and codes. For in network in network plans clients, I submit claims directly so you only pay your portion.

If you have out of network benefits with another plan, I provide the documentation you need to request reimbursement. Many clients receive a significant portion of their fee back once their deductible is met.

CHECK YOUR REIMBURSEMENT RATE

This calculator helps you understand what your out of network benefits might cover. It is for information only, not a guarantee. Your insurance company makes the final decisions about coverage, reimbursement, and timelines.

THE VIBE CHECK

A FIRST GLIMPSE OF THE METHOD

The Queer Talk Method begins with conversation. The vibe check is your first experience of that process. It’s a half-hour of real dialogue where you get a sense of how we work: curious, candid, and built for movement. You’ll feel how clarity happens here, not by performing insight, but by being met exactly where you are.

This isn’t a sales call. It’s a brief, human moment that mirrors the therapy itself: grounded, incisive, and unexpectedly energizing. Whether we end up working together or not, you’ll leave with a sharper sense of what kind of work actually fits you.
