We encourage you to check with your insurance in advance to understand your benefits and options. All fees, co-pays, and co-insurance is due at the time of service unless other arrangements are made ahead of time. That said, we’re all human here, and we want you to reach out if you need direction or support.

FAQs

  • We currently accept these Kentucky commercial plans: Anthem BCBS, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Cigna, and Oscar. We are working toward in-network status with Kentucky Medicaid MCO plans by 2026. Please feel free to check in with us at any time for a status update.

    To ensure that we are in-network with your insurance, call the number on the back of your insurance card prior to your first session. We will assist you with insurance verification during the intake process after you reach out to us. If insurance does not cover the cost of your sessions, you will be responsible for the full charge.

    Therapy clients are welcome to submit a bill to their insurance companies to seek out-of-network coverage. You may call your insurance company to inquire about out-of-network benefits because you may be eligible for reimbursements after your therapy sessions at our practice.

  • We do offer limited sliding scale appointments, subject to availability. Email us at hello@therapybeyondbinary.com for more information.

    Yes, if you’re paying out-of-pocket for therapy or coaching, we offer a range of session fees based on financial access. Please review our sliding scale here. When you reach out to us, please indicate your budget on the intake form and our team will assist you further.

  • Therapy is a regulated mental health service provided by mental health professionals who have completed graduate training programs in counseling psychology, social work, marriage and family therapy, and/or clinical psychology. Our therapists work to help clients gain insight, heal past traumas, address self-destructive habits, repair and improve relationships, and develop skills to navigate challenging and painful experiences. Therapy may also include diagnosis and treatment of a mental health condition. Due to professional licensing requirements, our therapists can only provide individual, relationship and group therapy services to clients located in the state/s in which they are licensed. Currently, The Expansive Group has licensed providers in Illinois, New York, California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, and can provide therapy services to clients located in these states.

    At TEG, we define coaching as a service that works to help you identify and clarify your goals, recognize obstacles and problematic behaviors that stand in the way of achieving those goals, and create action plans to build the life you want. Coaching services are provided by coaches. At TEG, all of our coaches have been trained as therapists, so you can feel confident that they are experienced in providing attentive and affirming care. They are also uniquely equipped to connect you with additional support if the care you seek extends beyond the scope of coaching. Coaching services can be provided to clients regardless of location, and clients can join virtual support groups from any location, as well. Coaching and groups are not a substitute for therapy. If you are seeking treatment for a mental health condition, you should seek services from a therapist who is licensed in your state. To the extent that we have no therapists licensed in your location, we can support you in finding resources for local therapists in your area.

  • Absolutely! You are welcome here if you feel like you would benefit from working with us. One of our dearest held values is to support people who would otherwise feel out of place in a traditional therapy practice. If that applies to you, then Beyond Binary was made for you, too. Welcome—and come on in!

  • Our home base and central office is located in Lexington, KY. As a virtual practice, business meetings are available only by advance request.

  • For therapy clients, we can only see folks who are physically located in Kentucky. Licensing regulations prevent us from providing telehealth services to anyone who resides out of state.

    For coaching clients, we can see folks located anywhere. Coaching guidelines are not dependent on location.

    Education programs and trainings are designed to meet specific outcomes. Some are individualized, others address general audiences. We are happy to work with clients in any location if our offerings can successfully meet your needs. Those who are interested in our individual trainings are encouraged to refer to the regulations of their licensing board or organization to ensure that content meets their requirements.

“I underestimated how hard it would be adjusting to working from home, but with Dr. Schell’s help, I was able to regain focus.”
