Frequently Asked Questions
Our therapists start with an initial session for just parents to discuss concerns and set goals for counseling. Treatment is typically a mix of individual sessions for the child teen, family sessions as needed, and parent sessions for strategies. The length of treatment can vary, and you and your child’s therapist will work together to determine the best plan for your family.
Sessions are typically 50 minutes in length with fees ranging from $150 to $190 per session, depending on the therapist you see.
For small group counseling, sessions are typically 45 minutes with fees ranging from $50 to $75 per session, depending on the group. Groups meet for a set number of weekly sessions, usually 8 to 10 weeks.
Current clients receive the following services as part of their session fee:
- Individualized treatment plans that are updated as needed.
- Occasional brief phone conversations with your therapist for updates and questions outside of sessions.
- At your request, brief phone communication between your therapist and other professionals caring for your child (doctor, psychiatrist, teacher, school counselor, psychiatrist, occupational therapists, speech pathologists, etc.)
- At your request, letters to other professionals caring for your child regarding treatment goals and progress.
- Resources to support your family’s goals and progress.
- Referral information for other professionals who can support your family’s goals and progress.

Early Connections Child & Family Counseling is an out-of-network provider. Many insurance companies will offer partial reimbursement of fees through your out-of-network benefits, and we are happy to provide you with an insurance-friendly receipt for this. You are also welcome to use a Health Savings Account or Flex Spending Account for your payment at the time of service.
If you plan to use insurance, we always recommend calling your insurance company to confirm your benefits and the process for reimbursement.
Questions to Ask Your Insurance Company:
- What are my “out-of-network” outpatient mental health insurance benefits?
- What is my deductible and have I met it?
- Are there any limitations on how many services will be covered annually?
- Is it possible to meet with a provider that I choose?
- What is the process for submitting receipts for reimbursement?
- What is the coverage amount per therapy session? Does this change if we choose an associate-licensed therapist?
- How long will it take to get my reimbursement?
- Do I need a referral from a primary care physician?
- Are virtual outpatient mental health visits (or teletherapy) covered by my plan?
As an out-of-network provider, Early Connections has partnered with Mentaya to help families save money on therapy.
