Affordable Therapy Program
Accessible Mental Health Care
Accessible Mental Health Care
At Feelings First Counseling, we believe that quality mental health care should be accessible. Our Affordable Therapy Program provides reduced fee virtual therapy services for individuals and couples who may not have insurance coverage, have financial barriers to traditional therapy rates, or are seeking a more affordable option for ongoing support.
Through this program, clients have the opportunity to receive compassionate, evidence based therapy from graduate counseling interns who are developing their clinical skills while receiving ongoing supervision and training from a Licensed Mental Health Counselor.
-
Therapy sessions are provided by graduate counseling interns who are completing their required clinical training through accredited graduate counseling programs.
Our interns are carefully selected and receive:
Weekly individual clinical supervision with a Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Ongoing case consultation and clinical support
Training in ethical, culturally responsive, and evidence-based counseling practices
Guidance in developing individualized treatment plans for clients
Although your therapist is a graduate intern, you are receiving care within a structured clinical training environment with ongoing licensed supervision.
