Need More Space to Process? Extended Sessions Available!

Sometimes 50 minutes isn’t enough. Extended sessions offer additional space to slow down, process deeper emotions, and explore complex experiences without feeling rushed.

These sessions are especially helpful for trauma work, heightened anxiety, or times when you need more room to fully process what’s coming up.

Extended sessions are ideal when you don’t want to feel rushed or when deeper emotional processing is needed.

Private Pay Therapy with Out-of-Network Reimbursement Options

Tru Healing Therapy is primarily a private pay practice, which allows for greater privacy, flexibility, and personalized care without the restrictions often required by insurance companies.

Most clients choose private pay because:

✔ No diagnosis is required

✔ No session limits or insurance approval needed

✔ No information is shared with insurance companies

✔ We can focus fully on your healing without outside interference

However, if you have out-of-network insurance benefits, you may still be able to receive reimbursement for your sessions.

Here’s how it works if you choose to use your out-of-network benefits:

• You’ll pay the session fee at the time of your appointment

• I provide a superbill for reimbursement

• Once your deductible is met, insurance may reimburse a portion of your session cost

• I partner with Thrizer, a service that can handle the reimbursement process for you

With Thrizer, eligible clients often only pay the difference between my rate and what insurance covers after their deductible is met.

I offer both in-person sessions in Apple Valley and online therapy throughout California, making it easy to choose what works best for your lifestyle and needs.
