Biological Roots Therapy offers both insurance-based and private-pay services. We are proudly in-network with the following insurance providers:
Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS)
Aetna
UnitedHealthcare
Optum
Carelon
UMR
Colorado Medicaid (Colorado Access / RAE 4)
Please note: Coverage, copays, and deductibles vary significantly depending on your specific insurance plan. We highly recommend verifying your behavioral health benefits with your provider prior to your first session.
Some employers offer a limited number of completely free counseling sessions through an Employee Assistance Program (EAP). If your employer provides you with mental health access through any of the following modern platforms, you may be able to schedule sessions with me directly through their portal:
Modern Health
Spring Health
Lyra Health
Please contact your employer’s HR department or your specific EAP provider directly for information regarding your eligibility and available session benefits.
Self-pay is available for all clients, with the exception of those using Colorado Access.
If you prefer not to use insurance, or if insurance is not the best fit for your current needs, you may choose to pay directly for your services. Choosing private pay offers you greater flexibility and privacy, allowing us to co-create a collaborative plan for your care without insurance-related limitations on the frequency, pacing, or style of your sessions.
Please contact our Denver office directly to inquire about our current private-pay rates for standard therapy sessions.
Please note that our specialized intensive programs—including EMDR Intensives, Peak Performance Intensives, and EMDR Sports Performance Intensives—are not covered by insurance. Because these are immersive, extended therapeutic formats designed for accelerated progress, they are available on a private-pay basis only.
To explore our structured 6-hour, 9-hour, or 11-hour packages, or to build a fully customized intensive timeline tailored to your athletic or professional goals, please visit our [EMDR & Performance Intensives Page] or schedule a consultation.
All intensive structures are calculated at a base rate of $200 per hour and are meticulously designed to maximize your breakthrough momentum. Every package includes a dedicated post-intensive integration session to anchor your progress and evaluate your long-term somatic resilience.
Ideal for targeted performance blocks, specific acute setbacks, or clients who have already done foundational therapeutic work.
Intake & Preparation: 2-hour dedicated session to map your history, identify triggers, and build somatic grounding tools.

Custom Intensive Packages: Every individual's history and goals are distinct. If our standard frameworks don't quite align with your timeline, we can completely customize an intensive package length and structure built specifically for your needs.
Multi-Day Momentum: For individuals seeking extended momentum, complex root-cause reprocessing, or those traveling from out of town, multi-day intensive experiences can be arranged when clinically appropriate.
Weekend Availability: Weekend sessions are offered at a premium rate due to highly limited scheduling. Please contact our Denver office directly to inquire about current weekend intensive options.
Every intensive journey begins with a complimentary 30-minute consultation. This focused call ensures that the intensive format is entirely safe and appropriate for your current goals, allows us to answer your questions, and lets us design a highly customized treatment plan tailored directly to your biology and timeline.
Payments are securely processed through a HIPAA-secure electronic health record (EHR) system using debit, credit, HSA, or FSA cards. Payment is due at the time of service.
Because we specialize in treating clinical conditions (such as trauma, chronic illness, anxiety, and depression), you can absolutely use your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) cards to cover the full cost of your private-pay therapy sessions or your standard insurance co-pays and deductibles.
Under the No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining exactly how much your medical and mental health care will cost before you receive services.
Under the law, health care providers must give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You can request a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least one business day before your first scheduled service. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit
Your designated session time is exclusively reserved for you. If you are unable to attend a scheduled appointment, please provide at least 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule. This updates our system immediately and allows appointment times to be offered to other clients in need of therapeutic or performance support.
Late Cancellations & Missed Appointments: Late cancellations (less than 24 hours' notice) and missed appointments may be subject to a standard session fee.
The Annual Grace Exception: To accommodate unexpected life events, illnesses, or emergencies, one late cancellation or no-show exception is allowed per calendar year without penalty.
Colorado Medicaid Coverage: Please note that clients covered by Colorado Medicaid are never charged fees for late cancellations or missed appointments, in accordance with state regulations.
Consistency of Care Guidelines: To support meaningful consistency of care and respect clinical scheduling limits, up to three late cancellations or no-shows are permitted per calendar year. After three occurrences, alternate referral options may be discussed to find another level of scheduling flexibility or a style of care that better supports your logistical needs.
Intensive Service Cancellation: For EMDR Intensives, Peak Performance Intensives, and EMDR Sports Performance Intensives, distinct cancellation timelines and applicable scheduling fees are outlined separately in your signed scheduling agreement.
Navigating insurance plans, Employee Assistance Programs, and private-pay structures can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to figure it out alone.
