A starting point, not a label

The same fight on repeat, feeling more like roommates than partners. Rebuilding intimacy.
Parenting & ADHD
Yelling more than you want to, mornings that feel like a battle, ADHD behaviors at home.

New job, new city, new baby — and you don't quite recognize your life. Finding your footing.

Simple, honest pricing
Transparent Pricing & Out-of-Network Reimbursement
We are self-pay and not in-network with insurance. If you have out-of-network (OON) benefits, we provide a monthly superbill you can submit for possible partial reimbursement. HSA/FSA cards are typically accepted. A Good Faith Estimate is provided as required by law.
We believe therapy pricing should be simple and clear. Please note that we require 24 hours' notice for cancellations to avoid a late-cancellation fee.
