Benefits of choosing an LPC Associate Therapist at The Wakeful State $75-$100
Lower cost: LPC associates often have lower fees than fully licensed therapists because they are still under supervision and not yet eligible for insurance billing. This can make therapy more accessible for those who pay out-of-pocket or have high-deductible insurance plans.
Access to two therapists: When you see an LPC associate, you are essentially getting the benefit of two professionals. The associate provides direct counseling, and their work is reviewed weekly by a licensed supervisor. This group supervision allows for case conceptualization, review of interventions, and collaboration on your treatment plan.
Dedication to learning: Because associates are in a supervised training period, they are often highly motivated to improve their skills and stay current with new research and therapeutic techniques. They are actively working on developing their expertise, which can be a significant benefit for clients.
Treatment for a wider range of issues: Since associates are not limited by insurance coverage, they can often provide therapy for issues that some insurance plans may not cover, such as general life challenges, relationship problems, and grief.
Potential for a better fit: Some clients may find that a new therapist's energy, fresh perspective, and adaptable approach are exactly what they need.
