Insurance

As a pre-licensed clinician I am not able to accept or bill insurance at this time. 

I can provide a "superbill" to clients either at the end of each session or end of each month (pending your preference). 

A superbill explains the interventions provided and the cost for those services which can be submitted to an insurance network for reimbursement; after paying for services out-of-pocket.

If you receive out-of-network benefits from your insurance provider it's best to speak with your insurance company to confirm or learn more.

Payment

  • Private-Pay (credit / debit card, cash)
  • Out-of-Network Provider Benefits

Good Faith Estimate

I review my Good Faith Estimate policy with each new client during intake.

Additional Information

I use TherapyNotes (a certified HIPAA compliant platform) for client/ clinical documentation, telehealth appointments, and to generate "superbills". 

Please contact me with any additional questions you may have. 

Information on Licensure:

Working with a pre-licensed therapist means that your therapist is following state-specific licensure requirements determined by each state's professional counselor licensing board. 

Post graduation master's- and doctorate-level mental healthcare workers meet with a licensed mental health professional who is also a board-approved clinical supervisor to oversee and monitor the pre-licensed provider's counseling skills, client care, counselor competency, and clinician's adherence to professional code of ethics.

After the pre-licensed provider completes all post-graduation and pre-licensure requirements and becomes eligible to apply for a professional license, the clinical supervisor provides the licensing board with his/her recommendation on approving the license applicant.

Working with a pre-licensed therapist is almost like getting two therapists for the price of one!

Each state has its own guidelines, requirements, and processes. 

The Alaska Board of Professional Counselor's requires at least 2 years of post-graduation pre-licensed supervised experience before LPC eligibility. 

I review this information with each prospective client during our free 20-minute initial consultation, and am happy to answer any questions! 

Dr. Ekstrom is available for questions should you have any for her. Each of our contact information can be located using the Contact button below.

I look forward to hearing from you!
