Actualize offers nutrition counseling and integrated therapy for clients working through eating disorder recovery, GI symptoms, PCOS, diabetes and blood sugar concerns, ARFID or feeding stress, sports nutrition, and body image distress. We use a weight-inclusive, eating-disorder-informed approach that focuses on practical support rather than shame or rigid food rules.
Insurance rules can vary by plan, clinician, diagnosis, and state. Two members with the same carrier can have very different benefits, so the safest next step is to verify before the first appointment. We can help you figure out whether your visit may be in-network, out-of-network, or self-pay with reimbursement options.
What to verify before you book
When you call the number on your card or check your online member portal, ask about nutrition counseling benefits, telehealth rules, deductibles, copays, coinsurance, and any visit limits. If your plan includes separate mental health benefits, ask whether therapy and nutrition counseling are billed under different networks or vendors. You can also ask whether a primary care referral is needed.
