At SHIFT Your Journey Mental Health Counseling,We believe therapy is essential for mental health, not just a luxury. As an insurance-based practice, we strive to make therapy a regular part of life. Over 90% of our clients use insurance to pay. Our diverse team fosters a supportive space for healing. We know not everyone can use insurance, so we offer cash payment options. Through our SHIFT Accessible Care program, clients can start therapy with our Associate Therapists for only $30 per session. We also partner with organizations like Open Path Collective, Therapy for Black Girls’ Pro Bono Program, and The Loveland Foundation to increase access, depending on availability.
