A Place To Begin
Are Daily Battles Wearing Your Family Down?
Defiance, outbursts, and power struggles can leave parents exhausted and kids feeling misunderstood. Behind most challenging behavior is a child who is still developing a skill, like handling frustration or calming down once they are upset.
At (Re)Connect in Towson, MD, we provide therapy for kids and teens with behavioral challenges that builds those skills. Using approaches like CBT and DBT, we help young people understand their triggers and respond differently, and we give parents consistent strategies that work at home.

Challenging behavior is often a sign that a child is still building a skill, and skills can be taught. Therapy helps your child build them while giving you tools to respond with confidence.

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.
