Therapy That Fits Your Budget
You’ve thought about starting therapy. Then you’ve looked at the cost.
Maybe you’re overwhelmed, stuck in your head, or tired of managing everything on your own. But with rent, groceries, and everything else adding up, therapy keeps getting pushed to “later.”
Our Affordable Therapy Program offers lower-cost sessions with supervised student therapists.
✓ In-Person & Online Therapy Available
✓ Individual sessions: $75 for 50 minutes
✓ Free 15-minute consultations | Evenings & Weekend Times Open
You Keep Saying “I’ll Deal With It Later.”
Maybe you’re…
Overthinking things other people seem to brush off
Keeping up with responsibilities, then crashing when you’re alone
Struggling with focus, motivation, or getting started
Saying yes because disappointing someone feels worse
Getting pulled into the same relationship or family patterns
Putting off therapy because there’s always another expense
You don’t have to wait until everything falls apart to talk about what’s taking a toll.

What Does a Lower Fee Actually Mean?
You’ll work with a student therapist completing graduate-level clinical training and receiving ongoing clinical supervision.
Your sessions focus on you: what’s been happening, what you want help with, and what you’d like to change. Your therapist brings their developing skills, preparation, and supervisory support to that work.
A free consultation gives you a chance to ask questions and see whether their approach feels right.
