A Place To Begin
Is Worry Taking Over Your Child's Day?
Anxiety in kids and teens often shows up in ways that are easy to miss. It can look like stomachaches before school, bedtime that stretches for hours, constant questions about what might go wrong, or a child who suddenly avoids things they used to enjoy.
At (Re)Connect in Towson, MD, we provide anxiety therapy for kids and teens that goes beyond talking about feelings. Using skills-based approaches like CBT and DBT, we help young people understand what their body and mind do when anxiety hits, and practice tools they can use in everyday life.

Why Private Pay?
Why We Don't Take Insurance
Insurance companies can dictate how many sessions you're approved for, and sometimes which providers you're allowed to see. Working outside of insurance means it's you and your therapist deciding what your care looks like, for as long as you need it.
Because we're not billing insurance directly, the details of what you're working through in session aren't routinely shared with a third party. If you'd like to submit for reimbursement, we'll only include what's needed for a superbill.
Insurance-based care is often built around short-term, symptom-focused treatment. Working privately gives us the flexibility to go at the pace that's right for you, whether that's a few months or longer-term support.
Being an out-of-network practice lets our therapists spend their time and attention on client care rather than insurance paperwork and pre-authorizations.
Can I still use my insurance?
Yes. We're an out-of-network provider, and you can use your insurance if your plan includes out-of-network coverage (most PPOs do). We'll provide you with a monthly superbill you can send to your insurance company for reimbursement. Many of our clients receive at least 50% back from their insurance companies.
