Investing in yourself

and

Your community

Clinician Investment

At NAT20Therapy, we believe care is something we build together. Each of us deserves support, and each of us has something to contribute. Our financial circumstances may differ, but our worth and our need for connection do not.

This belief shapes how we approach payment. We ask those who can comfortably pay our full rate to do so because their contribution helps make care possible for others. Those who need a reduced rate belong here equally, without shame or any need to earn their place.
We also believe that accessible care and fairly supported therapists belong in the same vision. A caring community makes room for both the people seeking help and the people providing it.

Our hope is to build a community where we share what we can, receive what we need, and recognize that our well-being is connected. Every hero deserves a healer, and together, we can help make that possible.

How WE are going to accomplish this together

Our goal at NAT20Therapy is to build a community where care is within reach for everyone. Through community generosity, grants we pursue, and a sliding scale rooted in people’s ability to pay, we aim to share the responsibility of making therapy accessible while fairly supporting the therapists who provide it. We believe that when we contribute what we can and receive the support we need, we create a stronger, more caring community together.

How you can help!

You can help grow a more caring community by sharing NAT20Therapy’s mission, connecting us with local organizations or businesses, and letting us know about grants or sponsorship opportunities. Sharing our services with someone who needs support can also open a door to care. Whether you offer a connection, a resource, or your voice, you can help us move toward a future where financial hardship doesn’t stand in the way of getting help. We also provide internships for clinical students from community college to Ph.D., as well as volunteer opportunities. Contact us today!
