Maybe. Insurance can be used for Psychotherapy but not for Coaching, Mediation or PACT sessions. Currently I am an In Network PPO provider for Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Illinois.

Yes. But that doesn’t just mean our partners or spouses it means anyone we come in contact with. Our friends, neighbors, colleagues, everyone we know we are in relationship with and the health, safety, security and enjoyment of those relationships shape our lives. So why not do what you can to have the best relationships possible?
