Working Together
What to Expect
We'll begin with an initial consultation and assessment to discuss your teen's challenges and whether DBT is the right approach. This is a conversation, not a commitment—we're both assessing fit.
If we decide to work together, treatment includes weekly individual therapy sessions (50 minutes), participation in a skills training group, and access to phone coaching for support between sessions.
Skills Training Groups
All clients participate in weekly skills training groups led by two DBT therapists.
Multi-Family Skills Group (ages 17 and under, or currently in high school)
Thursday evenings, 5-7pm
Parents and teens learn skills together, which helps create shared language and family-wide change.
Adult Skills Group (ages 18+ and out of high school)
Tuesdays, two time options: 10:30am-12:30pm OR 5:30pm-7:30pm
Young adults participate in this group with other adults.
Evening Hours & Telehealth
I offer evening appointments because keeping young people connected to their lives—school, activities, friends, work—matters. Therapy shouldn't require missing what's important.
I provide services via telehealth throughout South Carolina. Geography doesn't need to be a barrier to getting help. My physical office is in Lexington, SC.
Parent Coaching
For parents who want additional support using behavioral principles to create peace in their households, parent coaching is available from Rachel Martin, LMFT. Call 803-814-4411 to learn more.
Fees & Insurance
Session Rate: $125 per 50-minute session
Insurance: I do not accept insurance directly, but I provide detailed superbills you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
Many families find that out-of-network coverage combined with my session rate makes specialized care accessible. I'm happy to discuss this during our initial conversation.
