You’ve been there for every scraped knee, every late-night nightmare, and every "I can’t find my shoes" crisis. When your child is struggling: whether it’s with big emotions, school stress, or friendship drama: your natural instinct is to jump in and fix it.

Let's be real for a second: therapy can be expensive. Like, really expensive. You know you need support. Maybe you're dealing with anxiety that keeps you up at night, or you're navigating a tough relationship situation, or you're just feeling overwhelmed by life in general. You've heard that therapy can help, but when you look up the cost of sessions, your heart sinks. $150 per session? $200?
