In Need of Immediate Help?

The need for specialized treatment in our area is great and our Senior Therapists who can accept insurance are unfortunately booked for months. We do have a second option worth considering. Our Associate Therapists are providers who have obtained their master’s degrees but who are still fulfilling the requirement for supervised experience before they are licensed and can bill insurance. Through employing pre-licensed providers, we are able to directly and properly train a new wave of specialized therapists while also expanding the amount of treatment we can offer. Our Associate Therapists are skilled, compassionate, and knowledgeable professionals who are closely supervised on a weekly basis by our clinical supervisors, and who provide the same high-quality therapy that our Senior Therapists are known for. There is currently little to no wait for receiving therapy from an Associate Therapist. The catch is that our Associate Therapists can’t accept insurance, but we have set a fair price of $80/session for therapy with an Associate Therapist. If this sounds like a good option for you, click the Request Services button anywhere you see it on our website, and select “Open to Seeing an Associate Therapist’ when completing the form.
