Frequently Asked Questions

Couples therapy in NYC is sometimes covered by insurance—but it depends on the plan and whether a diagnosis is required. Here's how it works:
- If one partner has a qualifying mental health diagnosis (e.g. anxiety, depression), some plans cover relationship therapy under that diagnosis.
- Many couples choose to pay out-of-pocket to keep therapy focused on the relationship—not individual pathology.
- We provide superbills (receipts with session codes) for out-of-network reimbursement if your plan allows.
- HSA and FSA cards are accepted.
