Sessions run roughly 50-55 minutes, though sessions for younger children can be modified if necessary. We find that 55 minutes is enough time to address most issues, longer sessions can also be arranged with your therapist at their discretion.

Our therapists are trained in the following areas: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Play Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) Therapy, Mindfulness, and Shame Resilience.
With specializations in couples, family therapy, and treatment for coping with chronic illness.
Do you offer sliding scale rates?
We do not offer a sliding scale but some of our therapists offer a lower rate simply because they do not accept insurance but believe in accessible and affordable mental health treatment. Depending on the time of the year, we also often have Masters-level interns who can provide sessions for as low as $25.

The treatment plan is reviewed on an individual basis with your assigned provider who will help you determine how long your treatment will be.
What is a Good Faith Estimate?
