Our Method for Treating for Depression
Many clients improve and heal from depressive symptoms with therapy alone. However, some clients suffering from significant depressive symptoms may need medication in conjunction with therapy to relieve the symptoms of depression.
If you are treated by a prescriber and taking medication for depression, we will work in conjunction with your provider to make sure you are receiving the highest level of care. We can also refer you to a prescribe if it is determined that a medication evaluation may benefit you and your treatment plan.
At Anchor Light Therapy Collective our therapists offer several therapeutic interventions to treat depression which include:
- Individual talk therapy
- Trauma-focused talk therapy

Together, you and your therapist will create a treatment plan that is specific to your needs, preferences, and therapeutic goals. Together, we will move you beyond depression. A more fulfilling and meaningful life is waiting for you!

Insurance
We do not participate with any insurance panels. Anchor Light Therapy Collective is considered an out-of-network provider. We have chosen to not panel with any insurance companies and instead focus on providing the best care to our clients. Bypassing insurance allows us to create treatment plans that are not influenced by criteria dictated by insurance companies and offer the utmost privacy to our clients.
As a courtesy to any individual clients who wish to utilize their insurance benefits, I am happy to verify your out-of-network plan benefits to tell you what portion, if any, may be covered by your health insurance provider.
The client will pay for their session at the time of service. We will then file an electronic claim on your behalf, as well as submit any additional documentation required by your insurance company.
If your plan offers out of network coverage, they will reimburse you directly by mailing you a check.
Out of network insurance coverage varies. Most insurance plans offer out of network coverage that reimburses at 40-70% once you have met the out of network deductible.
