Providers at The Dragonfly Nest do not prescribe medications at this time; however, we are committed to providing referrals to holistic and trauma informed providers, based upon your specific needs. The Dragonfly Nest is rooted in the belief that much of our own natural healing capacities can be nourished through healthy nutrition, movement, mindfulness, and a general wellness state. We also understand that some mental health issues may require the need for extra support. We are here to support you in this and will work concurrently with your providers to ensure the most thorough continuity of care.

Sliding scale rates are based on financial need and will be discussed with your provider upon initial consultation.

Your length of treatment is always dependent upon the types of goals presented and your unique constitution (your personality, gifts, defensive and protective factors, types of systems involved, presenting issues, etc.). Session timing and length of care should always be discussed with your provider and termination sessions are encouraged, as therapy is a unique and attuned relationship. Please discuss any concerns with your care team, as communication helps to provide you with the most optimal treatment outcomes.
