Understanding Insurance and Fees
At Core Values Counseling, we have a wide range of fees for counseling/therapy. Fees are based on the level of experience and types of training the therapists have. We also offer telehealth therapy sessions for residents of Oregon state. Call us at 503-869-8108, schedule an intake call or fill out the New Client Form to get started.
Insurance
IN-NETWORK PLANS:
Aetna
Moda Health
*We do not currently have any providers who accept Medicare.
A valid credit card is required to be kept on file in the client’s account. If seeing an in-network provider, we will collect any copay or coinsurance within 24 hours of your session.
To request availability for an in-network insurance provider, please call our office at 503-869-8108, schedule an intake call or complete the New Client Form.
Important Update for OHP Clients:
To our OHP Clients,
As of October 1, 2025, the Oregon Health Plan (OHP – CareOregon/HealthShare ) will no longer cover care with “out-of-network” therapists or group practices like Core Values Counseling. Unfortunately, our requests to join OHP networks have been denied due to closed provider panels. We know this is difficult news and want to support you as best we can.
Your options:
- We can refer you to one of our intern counselors who offer a sliding scale.
- You may also talk with your current therapist about a reduced private-pay rate if that feels possible.
- Call OHP (the grievance line on your card) and let them know you’d like Core Values Counseling to be allowed in-network with CareOregon/Healthshare.
- Ask about “open card/fee-for-service.” Call OHA at 1-800-273-0557 and see if you can move only your behavioral health coverage to an open card. If approved, you could continue seeing your counselor here.
- Explore other providers. Waitlists can be long, but here are some resources:
Your counselor can continue meeting with you through September 2025. Please call us at 541-283-0716 to review scheduling options..
We know this change is stressful, and we want to help you find the best path forward.
With care,
Eric & Sabrina Walters

Cash Pay
Our counseling fees vary by provider. A valid credit card is required to be kept on file in the client’s account, and the client’s credit card will be charged within 24 hours of each completed session.
If a client has an out-of-network insurance plan, or sees a provider who is not in-network with their insurance plan, we are happy to provide a Superbill (Statement for Insurance Reimbursement), which our clients can download and submit to their insurance plan. Any potential insurance reimbursement depends on the client’s specific insurance plan and deductibles. Clients are encouraged to verify their specific plan benefits with their insurance company, by requesting eligibility and benefit information for “outpatient mental health” visits. The full session fee will be collected within 24 hours of each session, and Superbills will be provided after the completion of each month.
**Please note that if your provider is a Graduate Student Intern, we are unable to provide a Superbill.
SLIDING SCALE POLICY:
If a client is not covered by an insurance that we accept, we will offer a sliding scale discount. Such a discount will be at the discretion of Core Values Counseling, based upon a reasonable amount the client can pay.
To request availability or fees for a provider, please call our office at 503-869-8108, schedule an intake call or complete the New Client Form.
