A licensed therapist who meets with your teen privately each week — for anxiety, low mood, school stress, and the hard in-between. Steady support, not an intensive program.
Not ready to commit? That's okay.
We accept insurance from any carrier. Our team explains your benefits before your teen's first session.
The right therapist, a schedule that fits real life, and a plan you can understand.
We pair your teen with a therapist based on their age, what they're going through, and the kind of person they'll actually open up to. If the fit is off, we'll change it.
Every session is with a licensed clinician (LCSW, LMHC, PhD) who works with adolescents day in and day out — not a generalist seeing kids on the side.
The same therapist, the same time each week, from home. A predictable routine that fits around school, sports, and family — no commute.
Your teen gets privacy to speak freely. You get clear guidance on what to watch for and how to help at home — without therapy becoming a weekly report card.
This is individual outpatient therapy — usually one session a week. It helps when your teen is getting through daily life, but something keeps getting in the way.
Not sure which one your teen needs? That's exactly what the first call is for. If weekly therapy isn't enough, we'll tell you and point you toward the right next step — including our teen IOP when more support is needed.

"We'd tried therapy before and it went nowhere. This time the match actually clicked. She looks forward to her hour now instead of dreading it."
"My son shuts down the second I ask what's wrong. Having one steady person he trusts each week changed everything. He's talking again."
"I wasn't sure if it was 'normal teen stuff' or something more. The first call helped us figure it out, and weekly sessions were exactly the right amount."
"No 45-minute drive, no waiting room. She does her session from her room and gets right back to homework. It just fits our week."
"What I appreciated most: they kept me in the loop on what mattered without ever making her feel watched. She had her privacy, I had peace of mind."
"The intake call was honest. They said weekly therapy was the right starting point — no pressure into a bigger program. A few months in, he's a different kid."
No long application and no pressure to commit to a bigger program. We start by understanding what's going on.
Tell us what changed, what you've already tried, and whether there are any safety concerns. About 15 minutes, no commitment.

Same dayWe match on age, what your teen is facing, schedule, and personality — the kind of person they'll actually talk to.
Within daysYour teen meets their therapist online and settles into a weekly rhythm. You're looped in on goals and safety from the start.
Week one
Teens need room to speak freely. Parents still need to know whether things are improving, what to watch for, and when to step in. Good therapy makes both true at once.
This page is for individual outpatient therapy — usually one session per week, one-on-one with a therapist. Our IOP is a higher level of care with several hours of treatment each week, including group sessions. The first call is where we help you figure out which one your teen needs.
Yes — just not in every minute of every session. Your teen needs privacy to be honest, so the therapist balances that with parent guidance, safety updates, and practical planning. You'll know how things are going and what helps at home, without it becoming a weekly report card.
That's common, and it's okay. On the first call we can talk through how to introduce therapy so it doesn't feel like a punishment. Often the first goal is simply getting your teen to try one conversation — the right therapist match does a lot of the rest.
For many teens, yes. Weekly 1:1 therapy can help with anxiety, low mood and depression symptoms, stress, irritability, and avoidance. The intake call is where we check whether once-a-week therapy is the right level — and we'll say so if your teen would be safer with more support.
We accept all insurance plans. Our team verifies your benefits and tells you exactly what each session will cost before your teen's first appointment — no surprises after the fact.
If weekly therapy isn't enough, we'll tell you honestly and help you step up to the right level of care — including our teen IOP — rather than leaving you to figure it out alone. Starting with a call costs you nothing and gives you a clearer picture either way.
A short, no-pressure call can tell you whether weekly 1:1 therapy is the right fit, how your insurance applies, and what the first session looks like.
