These are unprecedented times and we are committed to continuing to be present to support our community. As we unite together to face this health crisis, Thriving Path remains open for all current clients and welcomes new clients that would like to schedule an intake appointment. To ensure the safety of our clients and staff, our appointments are virtual at this time. We offer both phone and video sessions. We will resume in-office appointments once it is safe to do so, and you are welcome to transition into an in-office visit at that time. If you are wondering whether your insurance will cover tele-health, please reach out to us; most major insurers are covering telehealth services as the pandemic continues.

We will do our best to respond to all inquiries as quickly as possible to help you navigate your self-care at this difficult time.
