Affordable Care. Compassionate Support. Real Change.
At Step by Step Counseling, we believe everyone deserves access to high-quality mental health care, no matter their budget. That’s why we created the Stepping Stones Program, a bridge between “I need help” and “I can afford it.”
Our Stepping Stones therapists are graduate-level mental health interns. They are compassionate, trained, and closely supervised by licensed clinicians. Stepping Stones therapists bring fresh energy, curiosity, and evidence-based approaches to every session, all at a fraction of the typical cost.
Only $40 per session — that’s less than half the fee of our provisionally licensed therapists and one-fourth the cost of our fully licensed clinicians.

Why Clients Love This Option
Affordable & Accessible:
Mental health care shouldn’t be out of reach. Our Stepping Stones program was created for individuals and families who want quality therapy at a price that works. At just $40 per session, this option is perfect for those without insurance coverage, with high deductibles, or who simply want to prioritize their wellbeing without financial strain.
Skilled & Supported:
Our graduate counseling interns are in the final phase of their master’s programs, bringing both fresh enthusiasm and a strong foundation in evidence-based approaches. Each intern receives weekly supervision from licensed clinicians at Step by Step Counseling and ongoing guidance from university faculty. That means you receive two layers of professional oversight supporting your care — your therapist and their expert supervisors.
Flexible Scheduling:
Life is busy, and finding time for therapy shouldn’t add more stress. Our interns offer both daytime and evening appointments to fit around school, work, and family commitments. Whether you’re squeezing in a session after a long day or before your morning starts, we’ll help you find a time that works for your rhythm.
Safe & Supportive:
Our Stepping Stones therapists bring genuine warmth, empathy, and creativity to every session. Many clients find that interns offer a unique level of openness and curiosity, a blend of professionalism and approachability that makes it easy to feel heard and understood. Every session is guided by compassion and tailored to your pace, ensuring you feel safe exploring what matters most.
