Payment and Cancellation Policy for Programs

Initial Payment

When you confirm your registration with our admin team, you will pay a $75 administrative fee to secure your spot in the program. This fee is non-refundable. When the remainder of the program fee is due, this administrative fee will be put towards your balance. We will require a credit card on file at the time of registration*.

Final Payment

You will be charged the entire program fee (less the 75.00 administrative fee) 2 weeks before the start of the program (or the next business day). Once the full program fee is charged, it is non-refundable.

Receipts

When the full program fee is charged to your credit card, we will send you a receipt by email. You will also receive individual receipts on the actual dates of the program. This is important because for insurance purposes**, your provider may require a separate invoice for each session, rather than the full receipt for payment provided at registration.

*Payments for programs are taken by credit card. If you require a different payment method, please advise our admin team.

**Group mental health programs are sometimes covered by insurance plans. Please speak with your insurance provider to inquire if your plan will cover the cost of this program. Important information to provide them will also be the designation of the group facilitator.
