STEP 2: Complete Your Registration Form
Click here to complete your new client registration form. Submitting this allows our billing team to verify your insurance coverage in advance and clearly inform you of your copay, coinsurance, or deductible responsibility before your first session so there are no surprises.
Step 3: Final Step
Our Intake Director will email your personalized portal invitation link within 1–2 business days of booking your appointment. Once logged in, you can complete your pre-session screening to help your therapist prepare for your first session. Once established, you can use your portal to join telehealth visits, view and manage upcoming appointments, review billing invoices, and communicate directly with your therapist.
