After the consultation, our intake team will follow up with you to see if you'd like to move forward.

Part of what makes therapy effective is confidentiality. If the child or teen knows we report everything to the parent, they might not tell us what we need to know to help them.
Therefore, we try to give them the most confidential space possible. That being said, we will bring in the parents for various reasons, including:
Serious safety concerns
Family therapy as an intervention
If the child/teen requests
If you have any questions, please inform your child’s therapist when starting services to make sure that you are on the same page.
