Why People Choose Ammirati Counseling

We went to Ammirati Counseling for family therapy. They showed respect for all of us and were very supportive. Our therapist is great. She challenged us and helped move us all to a better place. Thank you all!

The team at Ammirati Counseling is very professional, kind, knowledgeable and had great experience. Highly recommended!!!

If you are looking for expert couples counseling, I highly recommend Terri. We did the Gottman workshop and the follow - up sessions. Now, we check in with each other weekly to deepen our connection and have learned better ways to resolve and/or deal with conflict.

It was a pleasure working with this group. From the first call to the first meeting with my therapist. They really helped my family through a difficult time. Thank you all.

After years of therapy with different professionals, I did not have much improvement on my mental health. I am so happy with the individual Counseling services I received at this group. I hung in there and it paid off.Today I am much stronger, and I feel more confident.Thank you for your help.

The clinical team at the Ammirati Group is really, really good. My individual therapist challenged me to think about my situation differently, and to sit with my emotions rather than run from them. It was uncomfortable, but I always left feeling like I had a major breakthrough. I now have a self awareness that I didn't have before. Highly recommend!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is therapy covered by insurance?

Yes, we work with BCBS (employer-based plans), Aetna, Tricare, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare/Optum, and various EAP companies.

If your insurance isn’t listed, we can provide receipts and a coded visit bill (“superbill”) for you to submit to your insurance company for out-of-network reimbursement. We recommend checking with your insurance provider to confirm your specific coverage. Learn more about our insurance policy here.

How do I pay for sessions?

For insurance plans where we’re an in-network provider, we’ll submit the claims on your behalf. You’ll be responsible for any portion not covered by your plan. We encourage you to verify your benefits with your insurance carrier.

We accept payment by cash, check, or credit card. Click here to learn more about our fees.

Do you offer online/teletherapy sessions?

Yes, we offer teletherapy for clients who are unable to meet in person. While we believe in-person sessions offer unique benefits for building a strong therapeutic relationship, we understand that virtual care can be essential in some cases.

Ultimately, the decision will be made collaboratively between you and your therapist based on your needs and circumstances.

How long does therapy usually take?

At Ammirati Counseling Group, we believe that therapy isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about meaningful, lasting change. We focus on building a trusting, long-term relationship that supports your journey toward a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Many clients start noticing positive shifts within the first few sessions, but the timeline depends on your unique needs and goals. You and your therapist will determine what works best for you.

What can I expect from working with your therapists?

We start by identifying your most pressing concerns and challenges so we can provide immediate relief through effective coping strategies.

As therapy progresses, we’ll focus on deeper issues and shift toward interventions designed for lasting change. Together, we’ll work to help you reshape how you see yourself and the world around you—all in a collaborative process and at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
