Not sure about this

So my youngest boy goes counseling twice a month. He has since their mother left them. But today the counselor said he felt that he was doing fine and thought it was time to stop his appointment. They insurance company said he has reached his maximum limit on appointments this year.

I don't agree and I told him that. I said he still misses her and he still struggles with her leaving him.

He said well im sorry but if the insurance won't approve anymore appointments he couldn't do anything until next year.

I said I would request a new counselor and he said he wouldn't recommended it and my insurance wouldn't approve it either. He's reached him limit this year and would have to wait until next year to return to canceling.

I asked my hasn't my daughter reached her limit.

He said that was coded differently because my daughter has a diagnosis and my son does not.

He said he was sorry but it was out of his hands.

So I it's not his fault but holy f@ck I'm pissed off right now

I tired to call my insurance but apparently people start celebrating the 4th of July on July 1st and got voicemails.

So yeah I'm pissed right now

There is an insurance cap. You’re just shooting the messenger because you love your son. The insurance will bend, but you’ll need a diagnosis. They’ll allow more visits that way.

There’s also online therapy. Have you checked that avenue?

@Adogslife trust me I'm going to call my insurance company tomorrow. He has ADHD but as of right now we don't have I'm on any medications. I don't think he needs it. But I guess because he's not his appointments are coded or billed differently. I'll pay out of pocket if I have too.

I don't think he'd do well with a online appointment. He doesn't sit still long. So in person is better for him. I'm going to talk to my therapist tomorrow as well. See if he has any suggestions on what we can do.
