Call/text 385-200-0204, email dominic@truupsychology.com, or click "Schedule Free Consult" below indicating your interest. If I am a good fit for you, we will arrange scheduling and I will send you paperwork to complete before our first meeting.
If you don't see available times by clicking on the button below, then I have a waitlist. Call/text/email instead.
Most of my clients are private pay. That being said, I act as an independent contractor for "Alma" which allows me to accept most Aetna insurances plans for clients in Utah and Washington.
Don't have Aetna or do you live outside of Utah or Washington? No problem! I have partnered with Thrizer to handle the out-of-network process automatically for you. Alternatively, I could send you superbills to submit for reimbursement from your insurance provider. If you want to work with me, I can have Thrizer check your out of network benefits as a courtesy to you, to see how much therapy likely ends up costing you. You can also call your insurance company directly to get a breakdown of your out-of-network benefits (Please note: I do not provide superbills or billing through Thrizer, for Walk and Talk Therapy, and all Coaching services.)
If you have further questions about your In-Network and Out-of-Network benefits, please call your insurance company directly. Here are examples of questions that are helpful to ask your insurance:
What are my mental health benefits?
What is my deductible? Has my deductible been met this year?
What is my out-of-pocket maximum? Has my out-of-pocket maximum been hit this year?
How many therapy sessions does my plan cover?
How much does my plan cover for an In-Network/Out-of-Network provider?
You can find my fees under SERVICES & FEES.
As is most common for therapy services, I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. This means that you must provide MORE than a 24 hours notice if you will not attend a scheduled meeting. If you do not attend your scheduled session without notification ("no-show") or if you cancel/reschedule late, you will be charged the full out of pocket fee of the session. Note that insurances do not cover cancellation fees.
Emergencies can arise that might make it impossible for you to cancel/reschedule ahead of time. If you are in an emergency, please take care of the emergency!!! I will be reasonable when exceptional circumstances arise. Good communication about scheduling and scheduling issues generally avoids any cancellation fee surprises. Please communicate with me as early as possible about any scheduling needs.
Note: Cancellation fees are NOT reimbursable by insurance.
In compliance with the No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining the cost of your care. You have the right to request and receive an estimate of the total expected charges for your mental health care.
You will be provided with the estimate if you pay out of pocket and sign up for treatment. You can also review my fees under Services & Fees on my website.
Walk and Talk therapy or coaching happens in person. All other services are telehealth visits offered via a secure video chat system.
That depends on your personal preferences and our availability. Research indicates that regular weekly meetings are associated with greater treatment outcomes. Because of this, regular weekly meetings will generally be my initial recommendation. However, everyone is different and everyone's life circumstances are different. We can meet weekly, every other week, once a month, or at any other interval that works for our schedules. We can discuss this further during our initial intake meeting and we can adjust how often and regularly we meet at any point during treatment.
THERAPY:
Therapy is legally regulated, meaning that only trained and licensed professionals with advanced degrees can provide mental health therapy. The focus of therapy is to help you deal with emotional and/or psychological disorders. If you are seeking reimbursement from your insurance company, I can provide you with a diagnosis (given that you meet diagnostic criteria), which is necessary for your insurance to reimburse any money.
COACHING:
Coaching is legally unregulated, meaning that basically anyone can provide coaching services. Finding a skilled and educated life/wellness coach can for this reason be difficult. The focus of coaching is to help relatively mentally healthy individuals achieve personal goals and increase well-being. My coaching practice is specific to helping you navigate faith transitions and/or a mixed-faith marriage. Please be aware that coaching is not covered by insurance agencies and you can for this reason not seek reimbursement for coaching.
Despite some differences, there is certainly a significant overlap between coaching and therapy. You might, for example, experience mental health-related difficulties because you are going through a difficult life transition or faith crisis. Coaching and therapy related to a life transition or faith crisis might both alleviate mental health-related symptoms. I integrate my doctoral psychology training into therapy AND coaching.
