They have complete course work towards their respective master’s degree programs and are in the phase of learning where they are practicing what they have learned. Our interns receive weekly supervision from both their University supervisor as well as Alice Stricklin. They receive up to 10 hours a month of direction and feedback from licensed therapists.

Insurance: Alice Stricklin Counseling & Consulting partners with Advanced Billing Services, LLC to provide access to insurance (see above for details). If you'd like to find out what your coverage will be, contact our office by clicking here. Please be aware that all mental health insurance claims require inclusion of a diagnosis that meets the insurance company's "medical necessity criteria" (i.e., the client must have received a diagnosis of a mental health disorder using the DSM criteria).

*We DO NOT accept BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, TennCare, Employee Assistance Plans (EAPs), Medicaid, or Medicare plans of any kind.

Client Rights to a Good Faith Estimate based on the No Surprises Act which began Jan. 1, 2022.

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act (PHSA), health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request, or at the time of scheduling health care items and services to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" of expected charges. 

Note: The PHSA and GFE does not currently apply to any clients who are using insurance benefits, including "out of network benefits'' (i.e.., submitting superbills to insurance for reimbursement). 

Client Rights:

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

• Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
