Care journey
Your child can see a licensed therapist within seven to ten days of referral from your school counselor. Here’s how it works:
Referral
You'll work with your school counselor to decide if Cartwheel is a good fit. Once we receive a referral from your school counselor, one of our Care Coordinators will immediately reach out. We’ll welcome you to Cartwheel, collect your insurance information, and schedule the first session.
Assessment
Within seven to ten days, you'll meet with a licensed mental health professional for 60 minutes to explore your family's needs and develop a plan. We'll ask you to join a portion of this session so we can work together as a team to support your kid.
Personalized care
Your child immediately starts care with Cartwheel. Typically, this is a combination of individual therapy, group therapy, and medication if appropriate. We also offer individual weekly sessions between the parent and clinician to work on strategies to support your child. Our care typically lasts two to six months.
Ongoing support
As needed, we’ll work with you to find longer-term or more specialized care for your student. We’ll do our best to provide care to you and your family until that additional care is available.
