Services & Fees

Place of Presence offers two distinct service pathways: Psychological Services and Pastoral & Spiritual Care.

While both are rooted in compassionate care and support, they differ in purpose, provider qualifications, insurance eligibility, and fee structure.

The information below is intended to help you understand the differences between Psychological Services and Pastoral & Spiritual Care and determine which option best meets your needs.

Psychological Services

Psychological Services are evidence-based mental health services provided by Dr. Meillanny Gladness, Licensed Psychologist, or by Registered Psychological Associates or Associate Marriage and Family Therapists under the supervision of Dr. Gladness. Psychological services are designed to assess, diagnose, and treat psychological, emotional, and behavioral concerns through evidence-based care and compassionate presence.

Depending on your insurance plan, psychological services may be covered in whole or in part. For clients utilizing out-of-network benefits, a superbill may be provided to support reimbursement requests when appropriate.

Insurance coverage, deductibles, copayments, coinsurance, and reimbursement vary by plan. Clients are responsible for understanding their insurance benefits and any non-covered services. Even when claims are submitted on a client’s behalf, clients remain financially responsible for all fees incurred.
