Will my insurance cover counselling & what does it cost?
How much do counselling sessions cost and can I claim for my sessions on my insurance?
When considering counselling, one of the most common questions people ask is: “How much will it cost and will my insurance cover it?” At OLIP Therapy, we understand that investing in your mental health is a big decision, and we want to make the process as transparent as possible. Below, we’ll break down how insurance coverage works, what to expect when booking, and how you can check if your policy supports you in accessing professional counselling.
How to Check Your Coverage
To find out if your insurance will cover your counselling sessions, contact your provider and ask:
Does my policy cover counselling or psychotherapy sessions?
Are there any restrictions on the type of therapy or number of sessions?
Do I need a GP referral, or can I self-refer?
Will I need to pay upfront and claim back, or is direct billing available?
What Is the Cost of Counselling Sessions?
Counselling is a highly valuable investment in your mental health and overall well-being. At OLIP Therapy, we believe in being clear and upfront about fees. All sessions are payable at the time of booking, and details of our fees can be found here. Costs may vary depending on the type of therapy and the length of the session, but we ensure that every client receives personalised, professional, and compassionate care tailored to their needs.
Counselling provides a safe and supportive space to explore issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma, and life transitions. Whether covered by your insurance or self-funded, many of our clients describe it as one of the most worthwhile investments they have ever made.
