What to expect with this therapist in Sacramento

First time visiting this site? New to therapy? AWESOME!! Welcome :) Here's how the first 3 steps work

Therapy can be strange and scary. I want to take away the mystery and let you know how it works with sacramento child therapy. 

Step 1: The consult call 

This will take about 15-20 minutes and is completely free. You can schedule this online. You’ll chat directly with Renee and see if it’s a good fit for your needs. Not everyone opts for this, sometimes you’re ready to rock and roll straight away. Either way go to this link to schedule an appointment.  

Step 2: Intake paperwork and payment

Getting the party started! We’ll email you an intake package to your HIPPA compliant client portal. You will find questionnaires and legal and business documents for you to READ, fill out and sign. This typically takes 15-20 minutes and has to be completely completed before our first meeting. The sooner the better so it can be reviewed ahead of your appointment.  

Rates for service are $250 for the clinical hour. Because families are typically with us 3-7 months we offer a prepay bundle discount, 4 sessions for $800. We do not work directly with insurance. We can offer a receipt or “superbill” to submit for potential out of network reimbursement. Please speak with your insurance directly to understand your unique OON policy. We accept credit and FSA/HSA cards (venmo and cash upon request).

If finances are your main barrier we may be able to work with your budget. We only have a fixed number of these offerings and there is often a waitlist or “undesirable” appointment time. If you’re flexible we may be able to help.

Step 3: Our first appointment 

We can see you in person in midtown Sacramento or online through video. Depending on the kind of therapy, there is an assessment period. With children we like to break this up because there's so much information to gather and kids often have tiny attention spans. Renee often meets with the caregivers alone for the first session. Where you can talk about expectations and ask all the questions you're curious about without tiny ears present. We'll decide on the best plan based on your unique needs.
