Students and families can connect with a Georgia-licensed Cartwheel therapist within 1 week of a referral. We work with all insurance providers, accept Medicaid coverage, and have a financial aid fund to support students who are uninsured or underinsured.

Built for Georgia Schools

Our Georgia-licensed clinical team integrates seamlessly with district systems and student support teams.

Specialized School Avoidance Program

With 1 in 5 Georgia students chronically absent, our evidence-based program combines weekly therapy, parent guidance, and coordinated school collaboration to help kids get back on track. Our shared portal tracks real-time student progress updates.
