At Engage & Ignite Counseling, we believe access to mental health care should not be limited by cost. We accept New Mexico Medicaid and work with several major insurance plans to help make therapy more accessible.
Our therapists provide trauma-informed counseling for individuals, couples, children, teens, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and other challenges.
If you are looking for a therapist who accepts Medicaid or insurance in Albuquerque, we are here to help you understand your options and take the next step.

Out of Network
We encourage you to be in control of your benefits: Call your insurance company to determine if our services are "in-network" and determine what your co-payment will be.
Our office will notify you, as soon as we are aware, about any out-of-pocket fees that you may incur and are required to pay.
Before your first appointment, you should contact your insurance company and ask:
Are there therapists at Engage & Ignite Counseling that are in-network with my plan?
Do I have a copay or coinsurance for outpatient mental health therapy?
Do I have a deductible that must be met first?
Do I need a referral or prior authorization?
How many therapy sessions are covered under my plan?
Navigating this process can be overwhelming, so our team can also help you understand the next steps when you are ready to get started.
What Does Insurance-Covered Therapy Cost?
Your cost for therapy depends on your individual insurance plan, benefits, deductible, copay, coinsurance, and whether your therapist is in-network with your plan.
Many clients with insurance or Medicaid have therapy services that are fully covered or require only a small copay. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to confirm your specific benefits.
If you are paying privately, our current self-pay rate is $120 per session. Reduced-rate spots may be available when possible.
