If you are a new client- please complete the Inquiry Form on our home page and someone will be in touch soon. 

If you are a current client, please contact your therapist directly to schedule.

 

For new clients, once you are paired with one of our clinicians, you will receive an email with consent forms and intake questionnaires to complete prior to your appointment. These documents must be completed at least 24 hours prior to the start of the first session. We use an electronic health record system called Sessions Health. 

 

If you are scheduling an appointment for your minor child, your therapist is required to speak with the parent or legal guardian prior scheduling to the first session.

​We are in-network with most commercial insurance plans, including Aetna, Cigna, BCBS, Optum plans, UHC, Medicare, Tricare. Please inquire for more details. We are happy to verify benefits before scheduling. 

If we are not in-network with your insurance plan, we would be considered an "out of network" provider. If you have mental health coverage, we can provide you with a diagnostic receipt of services (a Superbill) that you can submit to your insurance company. We suggest you contact your insurance company to determine what benefits you have. 

How do I pay for sessions?

We require all clients to have a credit card on file. We accept cash, credit, debit, HSA cards, and checks. 

How often will I come to therapy?

Due to the importance of establishing a strong, trusting, and secure therapeutic relationship, we suggest that all clients attend one session per week for at least the first four weeks. After that time, your therapist can discuss spacing sessions as needed or maintaining a weekly schedule. Your therapist will regularly collaborate with you on this.
