Session Requests
Use this page to request a session, clarify fit, or begin the scheduling process through Cal.com.
If you are interested in beginning therapy with Authentic Arch Counseling, this page can help you understand what to review before submitting a session request.
Therapy access depends on several factors, including your location at the time of session, access pathway, current availability, clinical fit, and any required platform or program steps.
Submitting a request through Cal.com does not guarantee availability, confirm an appointment, or establish a therapy relationship.
A therapy relationship begins only after fit, access, consent, required paperwork, and scheduling are confirmed.
This page is not for crisis support or emergency care.
If you are in immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. For crisis support in the United States, call or text 988.
Before Using Cal.com
Please review the details below before submitting a session request.
These notes are here to help clarify whether Authentic Arch Counseling may be the right fit, which therapy access pathway may apply, and what needs to be in place before scheduling can be confirmed.
Cal.com is used to begin the request process. It does not guarantee availability, confirm a session, or establish a therapy relationship.
Location Requirement
Therapy is available for adults who are physically located in Massachusetts, Maine, or Washington at the time of session.
Because therapy licenses are state-specific, your location during each session matters — even for virtual therapy.
If you are traveling or temporarily located outside Massachusetts, Maine, or Washington, we may need to reschedule until you are back in a state where I am licensed to provide care.
Private Pay Fees
Private pay fees for Authentic Arch Counseling are $250 for the initial intake session and $200.00 for each 53-minute individual therapy session.
These fees apply when services are provided directly through Authentic Arch Counseling. Fees, billing, or coverage may vary when care is accessed through a platform, program, or partner pathway.
Review your access pathway, as some options use separate billing processes.
Access Pathways
Session requests may involve different access pathways based on your location, fit, current needs — and how you begin care.
Pathways may include SimplePractice, Tava Health, Atreyu Therapy Cottage, Open Path, Pineapple Support, or Tau Mental Health once available.
Not every pathway is available for every state or for every client. If you are unsure which applies, your request may clarify the next appropriate step.
Scope of Care
Authentic Arch Counseling provides virtual outpatient individual therapy for adults.
This practice does not provide emergency care, crisis services, 24/7 support, medication management, therapy for children or teens, couples therapy, or family therapy.
If you are in immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. For crisis support in the United States, call or text 988.

What Happens After You Request a Session
After you submit a request, the next step is to clarify fit, access, and whether there is an appropriate opening for care.
Philip will review the information you share, including your location, access pathway, scheduling needs, and what you are hoping therapy can support.
If therapy seems like a possible fit, the next steps will be clarified. This may include the appropriate platform, required paperwork, fees or billing pathway, eligibility requirements, and scheduling options.
Before therapy begins, any required consent forms, intake paperwork, payment details, eligibility steps, or platform requirements must be completed.
