Private-Pay & Why
Sunday Therapy LLC is a fee-for-service agency and does not accept insurance.
There are ways that you can choose to utilize your insurance including a request for reimbursement directly from your insurance company for the services received at Sunday Therapy LLC by asking for an out-of-network reimbursement or by choosing to pay with a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA). Commonly, insurance plans that are a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) offer reimbursement options while Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO) do not. It is your responsibility to verify specific requirements for reimbursement with your insurance provider, this is important if you plan to use your insurance. Sunday Therapy LLC does not speak to your insurance under any circumstances. A detailed invoice or superbill for services can be provided upon request and you can submit it to your insurance provider independently.
As a private-pay agency, Sunday Therapy places a high priority on protecting your privacy, mutual partnership in time and service offerings, a non-pathologizing personalized approach to care, and clear up-front billing.

This is a big deal. I know how important it is for you to feel protected and safe when sharing the most vulnerable parts of yourself. It’s hard to share with one person (Me. Your therapist.) let alone a stranger at your insurance company. Third-party payors (insurance companies) require a mental health diagnosis and treatment codes in order to consider authorization of coverage for mental health services. By choosing a private-pay provider, you can avoid this experience and have control of your personal health information.
-
Your insurance company can also determine how many therapy sessions you are covered for, how long your sessions are, and the delivery of services through what is called a standard service agreement. This can vary by payor source, and you’re encouraged to speak directly with your insurance provider to find out the details of your plan’s coverage should you wish to submit for reimbursement. Here at Sunday Therapy, I believe that no health condition, including mental health, can ever be standardized and for your wellbeing I aim to avoid early termination of services. It can be devastating to find out that your coverage is ending before you feel ready to walk away. With no attachment to a third-party payor system, I partner with you to personalize your length of sessions and course of treatment, the services offered, and your therapeutic goals to align with your unique circumstances. You also have freedom of choice to revise goals and to discuss the timeframe that feels supportive for you as life happens.

Choosing a private-pay provider allows you to proceed with less worry about co-pays, deductibles, and other charges. You simply pay the session rate at the time of your appointment. Even better, you know the rate before you walk in the door. The fee rates are published above, and any questions can be shared directly with me, your provider. You will be notified to the best of my ability well in advance of any adjustment to the service fees that may occur in the future.
If you want to know more about billing and payment, please reach out to me via phone, email, or let me know in your next session.
Rescheduling & Cancellation Policy
A minimum 48-hour notice is required for rescheduling and cancellation of appointments.
This is necessary because a time commitment is made to you and is held exclusively for you. If you are late for a session, you will forfeit that time and the appointment will end as scheduled. I do understand that emergencies happen, please notify me immediately upon the need for cancellation in urgent matters via your Simple Practice Client Portal, via email at hello@therapyatsunday.com or via phone/text at (612) 234-5277.
You will be provided a one-time pass for the first late cancel or missed appointment. For all subsequent late cancellations or missed sessions, a charge will be made to the payment method on file for the entire session fee or a paper bill will be mailed directly to you at the address on file.
Good Faith Estimate
In accordance with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS), you are entitled to a Good Faith Estimate of all services provided. All rates for payment are posted on this website, will be reviewed with you prior to payment, and you will receive an invoice through your Client Portal on Simple Practice. Rates are subject to change and all Clients will be notified in advance of this change in accordance with CMS.
CMS states, “Beginning January 1, 2022, if you’re uninsured or don’t plan to submit your claim to your health plan, health care providers and facilities must provide you with a ‘good faith estimate’ of expected charges before you get an item or service. The good faith estimate isn’t a bill.
Providers and facilities must give you a good faith estimate if you ask for one, or when you schedule an item or service. It should include expected charges for the primary item or service you’re getting, and any other items or services provided as part of the same scheduled experience.”
“Providers and facilities must give you:
Your good faith estimate before an item or service is provided, within certain timeframes.
An itemized list with specific details and expected charges for items and services related to your care.
Your good faith estimate in writing (paper or electronic). Note: A provider or facility can discuss the information included in the estimate over the phone or in person if you ask.
Your estimate in a way that’s accessible to you.”
“Once you get your good faith estimate from your provider or facility, keep it in a safe place so you can compare it to bills you get later.
If you get the bill and the charges are at least $400 above the good faith estimate, you may be eligible to start a patient-provider dispute.”
