The Coordinated Visit
Therapy designed for families with more than one person who needs care, and not enough time to schedule it separately.
Concurrent sessions for the
people who share a household
A Coordinated Visit means multiple people in your family can be in therapy at the same time, in the same building, during a designated visit block. A parent can be working with their therapist while their child is working with theirs. Both partners can be in a couples session while their teen is meeting separately with the child specialist. A full family can come together, then split into individual sessions in the same hour.
Care that fits a real family schedule, without forcing anyone to choose whose well-being gets the time slot this week.
More than shared scheduling
The Coordinated Visit isn't just two appointments at the same time. With your written consent, the clinicians on your family's care team communicate with each other to coordinate around shared goals. The work each of you does in your individual sessions can inform, without compromising, the work happening in the others'.
What gets shared and what stays private is decided up front, in writing, with you. Children and teens have their own confidentiality protections. Couples have theirs. Coordination happens within boundaries each clinician agrees to respect.
Families facing more than one thing at once
- A parent and a child or teen who both need ongoing care
- Couples whose teen is also seeing a therapist
- A single parent juggling their own therapy and their child's
- Two-career households where time for therapy is genuinely scarce
- Families facing divorce, transition, or grief on multiple fronts

From inquiry to first visit
- 01. Tell us about your family in the consultation form. A few sentences about who needs care and what's bringing you in is enough.
- 02. We'll respond with a proposed clinical pairing, available Coordinated Visit blocks, and answers to any questions about how coordination works.
- 03. Each family member completes a brief intake with their assigned clinician. Coordination consents are reviewed and signed.
- 04. Your first Coordinated Visit is scheduled. From there, you can return at the same time each week, or adjust the cadence as needed.
