If you are unsure if our services are right for you, you may ask for a consultation session. This consultation will allow you to meet the therapist and find out more about us without further obligation.
Payment for Services
Payment for services is determined based on a sliding fee scale, dependent on family income and family size. Fees range from $5 to $45 per session, payable by cash or check at the time services are rendered. The fee for Â鶹´«Ã½ students is $5 and $20 for Â鶹´«Ã½ faculty members. Please talk with your therapist if your fee needs to be adjusted. No one will be refused services due to financial constraints.
Risks and Benefits of Therapy
While most clients report positive results as they make changes in their lives, some clients experience interruptions in normal patterns, feelings, and relationships. These changes may add up to positive changes in the long run, but meanwhile, individuals, couples and families may feel discomfort and additional stress.
The University Clinic for Family Therapy does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, veteran’s status or handicap in the delivery of services.
