​Insurance

Please contact your insurance provider to verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services. For all new clients starting January 2026, we will bill clients directly at the time of service and offer super bills for reimbursement. It is the client's responsibility to determine if their individual insurance plan will accept their superbills for reimbursement. Under this model, diagnostic codes might not be available for superbills. 

We recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:

• Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?

• Does my insurance include experiential therapy by a Licensed Professional Counselor?

• Can I submit a superbill for reimbursement?

• Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?

• Do I need written approval from my primary care physician for services to be covered?

Important numbers to identify and share with your insurance company when sharing the provider's full name:

• Kari L. de Boer, LPC 

• NPI 1 # 1710287073

• NPI 2 # 1932825981

• LPC License # 6401011193

• EIN # 87-2895032

Choose Self Pay For Your Privacy

We offer you complete privacy over your mental health information. Although your clinician might still be paneled with insurance companies, we are moving to a self-pay or pre-pay practice.  We can provide a "superbill" for you to seek insurance reimbursement if you need it. It's best to schedule a consult to discuss this further so we can provide you with the best payment options. 

Clients may elect self-pay for a variety of personal, ethical, or practical reasons, including but not limited to:

• A desire for increased privacy and confidentiality, as insurance billing requires the disclosure of diagnoses and treatment information to third parties

• Avoidance of diagnostic labeling that may not align with the client’s values, identity, or therapeutic goals

• Flexibility in the type, frequency, and duration of sessions beyond insurance limitations

• Insurance plans that do not cover the specific services, modalities, or providers offered at Hawthorn Hive

• Concerns about insurance records impacting future employment, life insurance, immigration, or other personal matters

• Preference for an individualized, holistic, or humanistic approach that may not fit insurance reimbursement models

Choosing self-pay is entirely voluntary and does not affect the quality of care provided. If you have a financial need to bill insurance directly, your therapist can offer referrals to other clinicians who will bill your insurance for you.

​

Payment

We accept PayPal, Venmo (@hawthornhive), and all major credit cards as forms of payment. We also accept payment directly via this website and in your client portal. Payment is due at the time of service and is collected at the start of the session. We do require that you keep a current credit card on file. 

​

Cancellation Policy

To avoid a $100 no show or late cancellation fee, if you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand.

No Surprises Act

Standard Notice: “Right to Receive a Good Faith Estimate of Expected Charges” Under the No Surprises Act: Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, healthcare providers are required to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services, both orally and in writing. These “Good Faith Estimates” of expected charges are given upon request or at the time of scheduling healthcare services. You have the following rights: 

● To ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. 

● To receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. 

● To dispute any bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
