Takoma Therapy's psychotherapeutic model is conversational - we listen, ask questions, and seek out alternative perspectives with the goal of creating solutions together.
We provide treatment for a variety of mental health problems including:
Take some time to read the information each therapist has provided on the Therapists Page. Then, either call us at (301) 563 9156, or send us an email. Our Intake Coordinator is Hannah Insalaco, so you will be hearing from her. She will do her best to connect you with a therapist who you both think will best meet your current needs. Once you have been set up with a therapist you will receive a link to the Client Portal and you will be asked to fill out some online forms (no need to print anything!) before your first appointment.
Therapy sessions for individuals, couples, or families are usually 55 minutes long and costs between: $170 - $210.
Initial Consultation: $185 - $210
Follow up sessions: $170 - $190 (please see individual fees listed under clinician).
If you have an out-of-network benefit, we will provide you with a super bill so that you can seek reimbursement from your insurance provider. Payment is expected at the time of service and may be made by cash, check, or credit card.
We are in-network providers for all Care First/Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance plans. You are responsible for all copays, deductibles, or any out of pocket expenses and are due at the time of service.
Each therapists has a few openings for sliding scale appointments if we do not work with your insurance, but these openings fill up fast.
Cancellations require 24 hour advance notice. Late cancellations (less than 24 hours notice) will be charged a $50 cancellation fee. If the appointment is not cancelled in advance, the full session fee will be charged.
