The Matchmaking Process
Here’s what will happen in your Matchmaking Call:
Step 1
The Intake Team will help you choose the right therapist, location & appointment time, based on your personal preferences. Anything you share will be kept confidential. They know the team very well and LOVE matching people with the right therapist.
Step 2
To book your session, the Intake Team will create your profile in our system. A valid credit card must be on file to create your profile and book your session. The Intake Team will also collect your insurance information and necessary information. You won’t be charged until we receive the claims from Insurance. If you would like to verify your insurance coverage, please call the number on the back of your insurance card. If have any billing questions, you can contact our Billing Manager (847) 919-9096 ext. 5 or [email protected].
Step 3
Before you begin your first session, you must sign the “Consent for Treatment.” You will get an email from ThearpyPortal.com with instructions to create your profile. It’s quick & easy! Inspire is 100% paper-free, so all your files need to be done online. If you need any help, our Intake Team will help you through the process (847) 919-9096 ext 1 or [email protected]
Step 4
You’re ready to go! We promise to take good care of you and can’t wait to see you!!

We’re here to hold your hand! Choosing a therapist is a very personal experience. Scrolling through bios is helpful, but there’s a lot you can’t tell just by reading on the internet. Our Therapist Matchmakers are here to find the right fit with the right professional for your unique situation and personality style.

The first session lasts approximately 60 minutes. You’ll have paperwork to complete virtually before your session. The therapist will spend time introducing themselves and getting to know you, your story and your dreams. At the end, you’ll have the option to schedule your next session based upon your availability and goals. There is no pressure to book another session. We’re here for you to come and go as you need.
FOR MINORS UNDER 18: If the session is for a child 12 years or younger, the first session is just with the therapist and parent (s) or guardian. If the client is 12-18, we ask that a parent (or guardian) attend the first session for the first 10-15 minutes. The parent will be able to meet the therapist and help make the child feel comfortable.
PLEASE NOTE: Please share any concerns about your child with the therapist or Intake Team prior to the session— not in front of your child in the session. This is to protect your child and foster a positive start to therapy!
The second session is our unique formula for goal setting. In this session, your therapist will help you connect and understand what your heart really wants in this life. The remainder of the sessions will then be working on skills to tackle any obstacles in the way of you living your best life. In order to see lasting results, a commitment to at least 8 weekly sessions is recommended. However, we are flexible and can work with you to accommodate your schedule and goals.
FOR MINORS UNDER 18: Parents will not be required to attend the sessions but must be available for the last 10 minutes of the session in case the therapist would like to touch base with you or for any scheduling changes.
Counseling is a fee-for-service program. Inspire accepts insurance and offers in-network and out-of-network benefits. We are in-network with BCBS PPO, Humana, Aetna, and UnitedBehaviorHealthcare. All billing policies and information can be found by clicking this link to our Rates & Insurances page.
