Graduate interns are still finishing their education and being supervised by a fully-licensed professional. Therefore, we are able to offer their services at a low cost, $35 for individual sessions (50 minutes) and $50 for couples or family sessions (80 minutes). Because they are students, they work with CCCA for a limited time (usually two semesters) and cannot accept insurance. Some cases may be too complex for a graduate intern and will be referred to a seasoned professional. Seasoned professionals have graduated from an accredited program with a master’s and/or doctorate, have spent >100 hours with a licensed supervisor and have been fully or provisionally licensed by the state of Missouri. They can therefore offer more sustained therapeutic relationships and may accept insurance.*
