Affordable Therapy Services at CTC
At CTC, we are committed to making high-quality mental health care accessible to our community. Our Affordable Therapy Services support those struggling financially by offering high quality services at reduced and sliding scale rates.
We offer two options:
1. CTC Affordable Therapy Program
Our Affordable Therapy Program is designed to support individuals and families who are experiencing financial hardship by offering exceptional services at a significantly reduced rate. Work with a highly trained therapist-in-training—a doctoral-level clinician pursuing their degree in clinical psychology—at a consistent and affordable rate of $65 per session. Our therapists-in-training are doctoral candidates in clinical psychology, each bringing prior experience in the mental health field and a deep commitment to client care. Their work is enriched by close supervision from seasoned clinicians and professors, ensuring that every client benefits from a collaborative and highly informed approach. This comprehensive support system allows our therapists-in-training to deliver exceptional, high-quality care while continuing to grow professionally. Clients can feel confident knowing they are receiving thoughtful, well-rounded treatment from emerging professionals who are guided by expert mentorship every step of the way.
2. CTC Sliding Scale Services
For a limited time and based on availability, clients may request a reduced rate with one of our licensed clinicians. These requests are considered on a case-by-case basis, taking into account financial need, the clinician’s standard rate, and current scheduling capacity. If approved, the reduced rate is valid for up to 9 months.
Our full fee rates are in line with industry standards for the therapist’s education and training. The full fee for an individual, family, or couples session ranges between $185-$245 depending on the clinician’s credentials. When requesting a reduced rate with a staff clinician, it is important to consider the clinician’s weekly session rate. If you would like to request a rate reduction, we encourage you to propose a rate that is both manageable for you and is in alignment with your therapist’s credentials and experience. Please note that availability for reduced rate slots is limited. If a proposed rate is lower than what we can accommodate, we will gladly offer a referral to our Affordable Therapy Program or connect you with other community-based clinics that provide low-cost services.
