Affordable counseling program
NO INSURANCE REQUIRED
Quality therapy shouldn't depend on what you can afford.
Our clinical internship program pairs you with a graduate-level counselor-in-training, supervised weekly by our licensed team, at a significantly reduced fee.
Counsellor and psychotherapist
A teaching practice, on purpose.
Bridges has always been a training site. We supervise graduate clinicians from regional universities because it raises the standard of care in our community, and because it lets us offer therapy to people who would otherwise go without it.
Interns are not doing this alone. Every case is reviewed weekly with a licensed supervisor, and our clinical supervisor is an Approved Clinical Supervisor with two decades of experience. You get fresh, deeply engaged attention with senior clinical oversight behind it.
Email or send us a message through the contact page and mention you're interested in the Affordable Counseling Program.
Our office manager reviews your needs, your budget and your schedule, no insurance paperwork required for this program.
You're paired with a clinical intern whose training and interests fit your situation, under weekly licensed supervision.
Sessions start at your reduced rate, with the same confidentiality, structure and care as every other client at Bridges.
