Finding the right level of care

Finding the right level of care

Most people searching for a therapist need a therapist. Some need more than one hour a week and have not been told that is an option. We do both, and the first phone call is about working out which one you are — not about getting you into the bigger program.

Every group and individual session is led by licensed clinicians. When you start, you are assigned a primary clinician who stays with you for the length of your care, so you are not repeating your history to someone new each week.

Questions people ask before starting

What happens on the first call?

Ten minutes, no forms. We ask what is going on, what you have already tried, and what your insurance is. Then we tell you honestly whether we are the right level of care for you.

Will my insurance cover this?

We work with most major commercial insurance plans. Call and we will run a verification of benefits before you commit to anything, so you know what your plan covers and what it does not.

How soon can I start?

Usually within a few days of your first call. The first step is a short phone conversation, then a clinical assessment.
