Accepted Insurance Plans
Don't see your insurance listed? You may still be able to use your out-of-network benefits. Ask your insurance company about your out-of-network mental health coverage — many plans reimburse a portion of the session fee. Amee can provide a superbill upon request.
Why pay privately?
The case for out-of-pocket care
Your Privacy, Protected
Insurance requires a mental health diagnosis that becomes part of your permanent health record. This can affect life insurance eligibility, certain occupations, and future coverage. Private pay keeps your care confidential — between you and your therapist only.
You're in Control
Insurance companies often dictate the number of sessions, the type of therapy, and even the focus of treatment. Paying privately means you and Amee decide what to work on, how often to meet, and how long therapy lasts — not a claims reviewer.
No Hidden Hurdles
Many insurance plans require a deductible to be met before mental health coverage kicks in — meaning you may be paying out of pocket anyway. Knowing the full cost upfront makes it easier to plan, budget, and commit to your care without surprises.
