What’s your cancellation policy?

Seeking Sunrise requires 48 hours notice of a cancellation of an appointment.

Cancellation fees are the full cost of a session at a private pay rate. Clients who are experiencing unavoidable emergencies will be given flexibility on a case-by-case basis. Clients who have chronic-illness related concerns for ongoing attendance can discuss attendance policies with their clinician based on their unique needs and come to a mutual understanding on what will work best for attendance to ensure access to services.

Therapy is an investment that requires a commitment from your end to ensure that the services you receive will effectively benefit you. This requires ongoing attendance.

What are the benefits to paying out of pocket for therapy?

Using insurance will require your therapist to complete paperwork documenting the need for services. This documentation is submitted to your insurance plan for approval of ongoing services. Documentation involves brief notes from sessions, a clinical diagnosis, and may also include other chart details regarding your care. This is required for payment of services. Because of this dynamic, your therapist is required to make a case to your insurance that you qualify for services based on their honest clinical assessment of your symptoms and needs. This sometimes limits what services are covered. It can also dictate how many sessions you will receive or the length of treatment. Lastly, forgoing submitting this information to your insurance by opting out of using your insurance benefits offers an added layer of privacy, which may be important to you for a variety of personal reasons. If you have questions about if paying out of pocket is right for you, please reach out!

What can I expect when I reach out for a consultation call?

First, your therapist will set up a time for a free 15 minute phone conversation about your needs. There will be time to ask questions and for you to ensure that you feel comfortable. All prospective clients will then decide if they want to move forward with scheduling an initial session on the call. If so, clients will be sent onboarding paperwork and a link to enroll in patient portal for services. You will be required to provide your insurance and have a card on file for copayments/payments. You will also be required to complete intake paperwork at least 24 hours prior to your appointment. Failure to have intake paperwork and insurance/payment completed prior to your intake appointment will result in your intake appointment being cancelled or delayed.

How long is therapy?

Sessions are 45 minutes to 60 minutes and generally occur weekly or bi-weekly. The length of treatment will depend on your needs, symptoms, and the changes you experience in treatment. Generally, you can expect at least several month’s commitment for therapy services. You can expect to come up with a plan with your therapist to meet your unique needs and situation.

What are your hours of operation?

Virtual sessions are offered on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, from 4 pm to 6 pm & Fridays from 9 am to 4 pm Seeking Sunrise Therapy does not offer weekend appointments, nor do we offer a 24-hour crisis response. Seeking Sunrise is based in PACIFIC STANDARD TIME, and all session times are offered in PST.

Do you provide therapy to children or couples?

No, at this time Seeking Sunrise offers only therapy to individual adults 18+.

Do you offer sliding scale rates for services?

Yes, on a limited case-by-case basis. Seeking Sunrise uses the green bottle method to increase access to therapy services. Please reach out for more information & inquire about current availability to be taken on as a client under a sliding scale rate.

Do you offer in person therapy?

No, right now Seeking Sunrise is a telehealth only private practice. All virtual sessions require both audio & video and are done over a HIPAA compliant portal.

How often will we meet for services?

That will be up to you and your therapist! Typically, clients meet with their therapist weekly or bi-weekly. However, we have an internal policy of clients being seen at a minimum of a monthly cadence for ongoing services.

What are the benefits of therapy?

In general, therapy can provide emotional support, guidance on problem solving, and provide coping strategies. Therapists can offer an objective perspective, illuminate the patterns your life, & help guide you on how to navigate the healthcare system. The benefits of therapy will largely depend on your commitment and willingness to implement what you learn in your day to day life.

Some benefits of therapy may include improving your self-esteem, improving your communication, reducing the frequency or intensity of your mental health symptoms, gaining a better understanding about yourself, and making changes in your life that may have been difficult in the past. Therapy also comes with some risks. Be sure to read your intake paperwork and discuss risks and benefits with your therapist.

Do you provide medications or psychological testing?

No. If you are need of medication support or psychological testing, your therapist can talk with you about referral options for pursuing that. Medication management is not a replacement for talk therapy but is often used with talk therapy.
