Getting Started

If you are interested in services, please call 702-895-3106 to schedule an intake (screening interview). An on-site supervisor or counselor will speak with you to gather information and discuss your needs. If the center can meet your needs, arrangements for an initial session will be made.

Sessions: 50 minutes.

Fees

The standard fee for services are

  • $25 for initial sessions
  • $50 for subsequent sessions.
  • All new cases are required to have a telephone screening prior to initial sessions.

A sliding scale, however, is available based on family size and income. UNLV students receive services at no charge. UNLV faculty and staff pay a nominal fee of $10 per session. No one will be turned away because of an inability to pay.

Confidentiality

All client information is kept in the strictest confidence. No client information is shared without the client’s written consent. With the exception of ethical and legal mandates for the reporting of child and elder abuse/neglect and the protection of clients with the intent to harm themselves or others.

No Surprises Act Disclosures and Related Information

You have the right to receive a “good faith estimate” explaining how much your healthcare will cost.

Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients who don’t have certain types of healthcare coverage or who are not using certain types of healthcare coverage an estimate of their bill for healthcare items and services before those items or services are provided.

  • You have the right to receive a good faith estimate for the total expected cost of any healthcare items or services upon request or when scheduling such items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
  • If you schedule a healthcare item or service at least 3 business days in advance, make sure your healthcare provider or facility gives you a good faith estimate in writing within 1 business day after scheduling. If you schedule a healthcare item or service at least 10 business days in advance, make sure your healthcare provider or facility gives you a good faith estimate in writing within 3 business days after scheduling. You can also ask any healthcare provider or facility for a good faith estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you do, make sure the healthcare provider or facility gives you a good faith estimate in writing within 3 business days after you ask.
  • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more for any provider or facility than your good faith estimate from that provider or facility, you can dispute the bill.

For questions or more information about your right to a good faith estimate, visit the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services website, email FederalPPDRQuestions@cms.hhs.gov, or call 1-800-985-3059.
