If insurance companies aren't paying me, they can't dictate your treatment.

All is not lost, however. Out-of-network benefits may still be available to you, and I will give you any paperwork you need to submit for this reimbursement. The reason I'm not paneled is because the energy needed to spend on fighting with these for-profit companies is energy I save for you. Having non-clinical personnel dictate your therapy because of shareholder agreements is not an acceptable treatment plan. Insurance companies are known to be the reason great therapists close down their practices, and I don't want to go out that way.  I want all my attention and 20+ years of knowledge & expertise to be on helping you get yourself to a more fulfilling and satisfying life so you don't need me anymore!  After everything you've been through?  You deserve it!
