Cost of Therapy
The Wilder Method at Wilder Wellness Center offers a unique combination of traditional therapy and unconventional services, focusing on helping you grow and make real changes in your life.
Integrated Therapy Approach
The Wilder Method includes:
Traditional Therapy
Unconventional Therapy
1. Traditional Therapy
This involves evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) approaches.
2. Unconventional Therapy
Wilder’s approach unlocks the Instinctual Drive using a variety of methods, including disciplines not covered by medical insurance.
Some of the unconventional approaches used include:
- Cold Water Therapy: Designed to help you build resilience and confront discomfort.
- Visual Therapy Tools: Charts used to quickly assess and provide insights based on the Hero’s Journey, personality theory, and developmental theory.
- AI-Based Guidance Between Sessions: In between sessions, you will receive detailed reports that track your progress, along with actionable steps and tasks to help you build momentum and support your growth.
Billing and Payment Structure
The average session fee ranges from $100 to $300 per hour. The exact fee depends on your insurance coverage, session length, and the program you choose. Therapy is offered in different formats, including outpatient therapy and intensive program formats, which can also impact the cost. If you sign up for an intensive program, you can receive a reduced rate, and we will work with you to fit it into your budget. We offer flexible payment options to help you access the services you need without financial stress. Billing for traditional therapy services is based on session length and varies according to CPT codes for 30, 45, and 60-minute sessions. The exact rate will be determined based on the length of your session and your specific treatment plan.
We ensure clear separation between services:
Traditional Therapy (Insurance-Eligible)
Billed according to CPT codes for 30, 45, and 60-minute sessions. The exact rate will depend on the session length outlined in your treatment plan.
Unconventional Therapy (Private Pay)
Billed at $225 for a 50-55 minute session and $175 for a 40-45 minute session. This includes non-conventional services such as cold water therapy and AI-based guidance between sessions.
These services are itemized separately, with only the traditional therapy portion submitted to insurance.
