Payment for counseling
The woman can use insurance for payment of counseling and has a right to do so. However, it is recommended to pay out of pocket. The reason is detailed below.
There are negative consequences of using insurance benefits. In order to use the insurance, the counselor would have to confirm that the woman fulfills the criteria for a mental disorder diagnosis. The base is that panels need "medical necessity" so that the woman can become eligible for the benefits.
If the woman qualifies, the mental disorder diagnosis would have to be submitted to the insurance company for each session. If the husband is vindictive or the divorce is not amicable, the husband (or his lawyer) would try to subpoena these disorder records to win the divorce case.
