Counseling Policies

 

Counseling Sessions

 

During your first session your counselor will work with you to determine how we can best meet your needs.  If you and the counselor agree, future appointments will be scheduled.  Sessions are 50 minutes in length beginning from the scheduled appointment time.

 

Fees

 

You and your counselor will determine a fee that best suits your financial situation.  The standard fee per counseling session is $75.00.  Fees are due at the time of service.  We are able to accept cash, checks made out to LBCH or in some locations VISA & Mastercard.

 

Cancellations

 

We understand that occasionally appointments need to be cancelled.  Please notify us as soon as possible when you know that you need to cancel.  This provides an opportunity for that counseling session time to be available for someone else.  If you do not notify us of your cancellation within 24 hrs of your scheduled appointment it is our policy to bill you your agreed upon “fee per session” or $35.00, whichever is greater. If you do not attend a scheduled appointment without proper notification we reserve the right to receive the above mentioned fee before scheduling future appointments.

 

Emergencies

 

In some extreme situations, you may need to talk to your counselor before your next scheduled session.  If the need cannot wait until the next scheduled session call (318) 345-8200 or 1-877-345-7411for toll free assistance.  If your counselor is not available, please leave a message and your call will be returned within 24 hours or the next business day.  If you need assistance after hours, weekends, or in an emergency, call the following provider for crisis intervention or go to your local hospital emergency room:
