Circles of Security Parenting (COSP) training is an 8 week course designed to support any parent.
At times all parents feel lost or without a clue about what our child might need from us. Imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you.
The Circle of Security ParentingTM program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened.
Learning Objectives of the Program:
• Understand your child’s emotional world by learning to read the emotional needs
• Support your child’s ability to successfully manage emotions
• Enhance the development of your child's self esteem
• Honor your innate wisdom and desire for your child to be secure
What About Insurance?
We are in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield -BCBS
- All claims will be submitted and processed through your insurance carrier
- We collect patient fees (copay, coinsurance deductive, etc) after the claims have been processed.
- Should your insurance carrier deny claims, we will collect from you directly. However, we will help you with appeals and provide any documentation necessary to ensure continued coverage.
- Unfortunately we are NOT in network with other insurance carriers (United Healthcare, Cigna, Aetna, Tricare, Kidcare, Medicaid or any other third party insurance provider). Receiving services from Kids In Sync would be considered an out of network benefit and likely carries different limitations than in network allowances. We are happy to submit the claims for you but require payment at the time of service. We bill our clients monthly and require a credit card on file which we will charge at that time.
We are out of Network with other providers
If you are not covered by BCBS PPO and would like to use insurance, here are some questions to ask your insurer before we meet:
Do I have out-of-network benefits for mental health services?
Do I need to meet a deductible before I can start obtaining reimbursement for out of network services?
If yes, what is my deductible and how far am I in meeting it for this calendar year?
What percentage of services will you reimburse for once my deductible is met?
What is the process to submit for out-of-network reimbursement?
