Starting Therapy at Mountain View Counseling

Simplifying Getting Started

We know that reaching out can feel like the hardest part. Our goal is to make starting therapy as smooth, transparent, and grounded as possible. Below, you will find everything you need to know about our logistics, fees, and timelines before you open our secure intake portal.

Insurance & Financial Transparency

Insurance Participation
We work hard to help you utilize your mental health benefits.

  • In-Network: We accept several major commercial insurance plans. Please have your member ID ready to enter into the form.

  • Medicaid & Medicare Notice: Please note that we are not in-network with any Medicare or Medicaid plans, and cannot accept them for services.
     

Self-Pay Session Fees & Out-of-Network

If you are not using one of our contracted insurance networks, you can opt for self-pay.

  • Standard Session Fee: $120 per clinical hour (CPT-09837).

  • Intern Session Fees: We offer intern sessions at $45 per clinical hour, when available.

  • Sliding Scale: Please inquire about 

  • Out-of-Network: We can provide a monthly "Superbill" receipt for you to submit to your insurance provider for potential partial reimbursement.​

Filling Out Our Intake Form

When you click the button below, a secure, encrypted pop-up form will open. To match you with the best provider for you, the form will ask you for:

  • Who is receiving care?

    • Select "Me" if you are an adult seeking individual therapy.

    • Select "My partner and me" if you are initiating couples counseling.

    • Select "Someone else" only if you are a parent or legal guardian filling this out for a child or dependent teenager.
      Please note: Due to healthcare privacy laws, we cannot accept intake requests submitted by friends, parents, or spouses on behalf of another adult. If you are supporting an adult loved one, please have them fill out the form directly.

  • Your Details: Basic contact info and date of birth.

  • Scheduling Preferences: You can select your preferred windows (Morning, Afternoon, Evening, or Weekend).

  • Location & Therapist Preference: Select your office choice (Halifax or Camp Hill) and whether you want to work with a specific therapist (like Lacey, Devan, Cedy, Morgan, Laura, or an Intern) or if you are open to anyone.

    • Note: Requesting a specific therapist may result in a longer wait time depending on their current caseload.

  • Sliding Scale Requests: Use the open-ended text box at the very end to write: "I would like to be considered for a sliding scale slot."
