Mental wellness is crucial for every human being, but this is especially true during the perinatal stages of a woman’s life. Stressors are seemingly everywhere when life’s natural complications arise, and it can feel like you are unseen and unheard. At Crescent Moon Therapy, we strive to show you that you are never alone. You deserve a support system that will not only help you heal, but empower you.
Our focus at Crescent Moon Therapy is primarily on telehealth, so we do not typically have face-to-face appointments. By eliminating the need for travel, our clients can receive the same experienced, compassionate care as an in-person session without disrupting their day.
We may be able to arrange in-person sessions with you from time to time, but that depends on our team’s availability. Our team can discuss this as a possible option for you during your consultation.
We accept a range of insurance plans in our network. If you are not in-network with us, you still have the option to pay without insurance. Should you choose this option, we can send a superbill to you each month outlining received services. It is possible that some of these services could be reimbursed, so be sure to contact your insurance provider. Asking about whether your plan covers you for behavioral health is the easiest way to find out whether you need to pay the full contracted rate or not.
Your Sessions At A Glance
