Our services
Specialized, evidence-based care for children, teens and adults. Whether you're managing OCD, anxiety, an eating disorder, or trauma, or want affirming support as an ADHDer or autistic person, we'll work together on a tailored treatment plan.
One-on-one, focused on you
One-on-one therapy for OCD, anxiety, ADHD, autism, ARFID, and trauma. We match you with a clinician whose training fits what you're walking through, and we tailor the approach to you.
For children as young as 3
Putting big feelings into words isn't always possible yet, so we meet children where they are. Play therapy uses play, a child's most natural language, to help them express what they can't yet say, work through worry and overwhelming emotions, and build the skills to feel more like themselves again. For autistic children we also offer AutPlay Therapy.
How we work
Everyone who comes to Layers is different, so we match the approach to the person, never the other way around. Some of the approaches we draw from:
ERP
The gold-standard treatment for OCD: gradually facing fears while resisting compulsions, so they lose their grip.
I-CBT
An evidence-based OCD treatment that targets the faulty reasoning behind obsessions, without relying on exposure.
SPACE
A parent-based program for child and teen anxiety and OCD, where small shifts in how you respond ease your child's distress.
AutPlay
A play-based, neurodiversity-affirming approach for autistic and neurodivergent children.
CBT · DBT · ACT
Established, skills-based therapies for anxious thoughts, intense emotions, and what matters most to you.
Getting started
Knowing what's coming makes reaching out a little easier. You don't need the right words or a tidy explanation of what's wrong. You just need to show up. We'll take it from there.
Free consult
15 minutes · video
A free video call with the clinician you'd actually be working with, not a sales rep or a call center. For a child, this call is usually with you, the parent or caregiver. It's a chance to:
• Share a little about what's bringing you (or your child) in
• Get a feel for the therapist and how they work
• Ask anything about approach, scheduling, or fees
• Decide together whether it feels like the right fit
First session
About 50 minutes
Mostly about getting to know you. You set the pace, and there's nothing to prepare beyond a little paperwork:
• Intake forms arrive through our secure client portal; please complete them at least 24 hours before
• We talk through what brought you in, a bit of your history, and what you'd like to feel different
• For younger children, this session usually includes time with you, the caregiver
Fees and insurance
Private pay · superbills · HSA / FSA
Your consultation is free. After that, we're a private-pay practice, which keeps your care between you and your clinician:
• Not in-network with insurance, but we provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement
• HSA and FSA cards accepted
• Session rates depend on the clinician you work with; ask about them on your consult call
