Radical Healing Collaborative Appointment Request Form - Sliding Scale Therapy

Please read before completing form:

We will review your form and email or text you within 2 business days.
Weekly appointments will begin in September and end in April 2025.
These appointments will be offered on a sliding scale based on your self-assessment of your financial privilege. We will not ask you to share information on your income or assets with us.
Clinical Counseling Training Fellows are Master of Social Work and Clinical Mental Health Counseling candidates under the supervision of a licensed professional (the clinical supervisor).
Clinical Counseling Training Fellows provide individual therapy to adults and teenagers/children with adult consent. They do not offer couples or family therapy.
Your Clinical Counseling Training Fellow may request your permission to video record the appointment or for their clinical supervisor to attend. These measures are intended to ensure that you are receiving quality, ethical care. Recordings are stored on a HIPAA-protected server and solely used for the purposes of supervision. Video files will be destroyed once they have been reviewed. If a clinical supervisor attends your therapy appointment, they will not participate in the appointments.
We will do our best to offer you care that is within your budget.
We will do our best to match you with a Clinical Counseling Training Fellow who aligns with your preferences. Please know that this is not always possible.
Clinical Counseling Training Fellows do not accept insurance.
Clinical Counseling Training Fellows do not offer weekend appointments or appointments after 5pm.
Clinical Counseling Training Fellows are only available to provide care for clients who are residing in North Carolina.

A sliding scale is used to encourage people to pay according to their available resources. Those with greater financial privilege contribute more, allowing those with less access, to pay according to their means. This allows us to sustain services while making accessibility as broad as possible.
