Our Services
Psychotherapy
The Clinic provides short-term and medium-length psychotherapy to children, teens, adults, couples, and families. We use a wide variety of clinical practices and can tailor treatment to meet your needs. These sessions are by appointment only.
We charge for all services on a sliding fee scale. Your first treatment sessions are free, while the fee for later sessions will be negotiated during your first meeting.

Adults
We treat adults, including UConn students, experiencing a variety of concerns, including relationship and stress-related problems, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, and more. Adults can be seen by themselves or with a partner in marital or couples' therapy.
Children and Teens
We treat children and teens for behavioral and emotional difficulties, attentional problems, oppositional behaviors, anxiety, depression, trauma-related difficulties, autism spectrum disorder, and more. Children and teens can be seen individually or in family sessions. Very young children may also be seen in parent-child sessions. While treatment is tailored to fit the needs of each individual or family, it is expected that all families will be involved in the treatment program.
Psychological Assessments
The Clinic provides psychological evaluations for children and adults, including UConn students. Clients come to the Clinic for the assessment of learning disabilities, developmental disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, attentional difficulties, and emotional/ behavioral problems. Upon request clinicians may consult with schools and other agencies regarding evaluation results and treatment recommendations. The Clinic also works closely with the UConn Center for Students with Disabilities and with the Student Athlete Success Program to provide assessment to clients they refer.
The fee for full evaluations, including testing, test scoring, report preparation, and a feedback meeting, is $1,500. However, your fee can be reduced based on your family income. If you’re applying for a fee reduction, you’ll be given a Good Faith Estimate during the initial phone call, but fees are only confirmed after you present proof of income. For more information, see the Application for Reduced Fees.
