Paying for counselling shouldn’t feel complicated. That’s why Juniper Counselling offers direct billing with many insurance providers. In most cases, we can bill your insurance company directly so you only pay the portion not covered by your plan — sometimes nothing at all.
Our goal is simple: make getting support feel easier from the very first step.
Why Direct Billing Matters
Starting counselling takes courage. Figuring out receipts, claim forms, and reimbursement timelines shouldn’t be another obstacle.
With direct billing, you can:
- Avoid paying the full session fee upfront (when coverage allows)
- Skip submitting your own claims and paperwork
- Get clarity about your coverage before or at your first appointment
- Focus your energy on your wellbeing — not insurance logistics
If you’re unsure about your benefits, we’re happy to help you understand your coverage.
How It Works
- Book your appointment with your Juniper counsellor
- Provide your insurance details before your session.
- We submit the claim directly to your provider.
- You only pay any remaining balance if not fully covered by your plan.
Coverage varies depending on your specific policy. Some plans cover the full cost, while others cover a percentage.
