Sliding-Scale Services at Our Center:

1. Sessions with a Trainee or Student:  

   We offer therapy sessions at a reduced rate of $60 per 50-minute session with our dedicated trainees and students. These are individuals who are currently completing their training and education under the supervision of licensed professionals. Our trainees and students are passionate about helping others and bring a fresh, informed perspective to therapy. They are closely guided by experienced trainers and supervisors to ensure that clients receive high-quality, neuro-affirming care in a supportive and safe environment.

2. Sessions with an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT):  

   For those who prefer to work with a therapist who has completed their graduate education and is working toward full licensure, we offer sessions with an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist for $100 per 50-minute session. Our AMFTs have substantial training and experience and are committed to providing compassionate, effective care. They are also under the supervision of licensed clinicians and receive continued training to ensure that clients receive the benefit of Awaken Therapy’s mission.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more about our low-fee services, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We are here for you.

We offer neuro-affirmative therapy in California & Florida, coaching throughout the U.S., and adult psychological assessments in California.

We will start with a consultation. During the consultation, we will ask questions to get a better sense of what you’re struggling with and whether or not we are a good fit for your needs. After the consultation, we will set up an initial session if both parties decide to move forward.

The beginning of therapy focuses on getting to know you and your sensory sensitivities better and collaboratively defining clear goals you’d like to see from therapy. During sessions, the therapist will support you in unpacking what you choose to work on, connecting to your body, providing accommodations for yourself, challenging cognitive distortions, and promote healthier behaviors. When weather permits, sessions can be done outdoors where mindfulness activities are enhanced.

We request that clients meet with their therapist weekly at a set day and time. This helps you create space to focus on yourself and provides an opportunity for steady progression. Individual sessions rang from 50- 7 minutes long, and family sessions and coaching sessions are one hour.

Yes! We currently offer neuro-affirmative assessments for adults only. Please make a free consultation to schedule an appointment.

The Psychological Assessment Process:

1. Initial Consultation:

The first step is to schedule an appointment by submitting a $500 payment.

Once the appointment is confirmed, you will receive instructions via email on how to prepare for the virtual assessment.

You will receive an intake form which is due at least one week before your first virtual interview.

2. First Virtual Interview:

The second $500.00 payment is due 48 hours before the appointment date

The first virtual interview will focus on gathering specific information about your background and concerns.

You will have the opportunity to share your experiences and any specific challenges you may be facing.

You will be emailed self-report assessments which measure social skills to complete before our next meeting.

3. Second Virtual Appointment:

Prior to the second appointment, a $1000 payment will be due 48 hours prior.

This session will involve more in-depth assessments and tools to evaluate symptoms and look for any “yellow flags” of further diagnoses.

The type of questions asked will revolve around behavior across your lifespan, and target certain mannerisms.

If applicable, client’s family/friends will be invited to take part in the assessment process.

4. Third Virtual Appointment:

Another $1000 payment must be made 48 hours before the third appointment.

This session includes additional assessments or discussions to explore your strengths and challenges further.

Clinicians will report if they recommend further assessments.

5. Final Feedback Session:

The remaining balance will be due 48 hours before the final feedback session.

During this session, the assessment results will be discussed, and recommendations for support provided.

6. Additional Documentation Fees:

Any further documentation fees will be communicated and due before delivery of the assessment report.

You are welcome to ask any questions or seek clarification about the assessment process at any time.

Therapy can be held virtually, or outdoors. Nature therapy is offered with certain clinicians when weather permits. Hiking, forest bathing, somatic therapies, and mindfulness exercises are all offered outdoors.

We work with teens 12 years old and up, as well as adults.
