About Improving Lives Counseling Services, Inc.
Improving Lives Counseling Services offers mental and behavioral health counseling for kids, teens and adults in Oklahoma. At their main office in Tulsa, they provide outpatient programs to help you overcome a range of conditions, including substance use disorder. They accept self pay, private insurance, Medicaid, Medicare and Soonercare.
When you first connect with your care team, they’ll perform an assessment to understand more about what you’re going through and how they can help. Here, they specialize in individual, couples, group and family counseling sessions. They also offer case management, life skills coaching and spiritual development.
If you have a co-occurring psychiatric condition, their evidence based therapies can help you address those symptoms. Some of the treatment models they use include eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, neurofeedback and brainspotting. I think it’s neat that they allow you to attend counseling in person or online. They even offer sessions that use virtual reality.

Accepted Insurance
Other Forms of Payment
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
