Services Offered
Psychotherapy
The Raimy Clinic provides psychological treatment to adults living in the broader Boulder area as well as to CU students, faculty and staff. Graduate student therapists work with individuals and couples for a wide variety of problems, including anxiety, depression, eating/body image concerns, family and relationship difficulties. We provide treatment to those whose situations and symptoms do not require hospital or medical care. Because of the training function of the Clinic, all therapy sessions are video and/or audio-taped.
Brain Behavior Clinic
The BBC offers neuropsychological assessments for a range of cognitive disorders in adults that may arise from injury, disease or disability. Evaluations are typically in response to concerns about memory loss, problems in concentration, difficulties in organization, or even changes in personality.
Attention, Behavior, and Learning Clinic
This clinic offers assessment of ADHD, learning disabilities, and other cognitive, emotional, and behavioral difficulties for children and adolescents.
Fees and Payment
Fees for psychotherapy are determined according to the Clinic's sliding fee scale and are based upon the client's gross annual income (documentation required). The intake evaluation is required for all clients, but is conducted at no charge. Fees for treatment must be paid at the time of each session by check or cash. Fees are based on client's income and range from $15 to $70 per session. University of Colorado undergraduate and graduate students pay a fixed fee of $15 per session. For all university faculty and staff, the fee is $35 per 50-minute session.
Fees for assessments are set by the specialty clinics. More detailed information may be obtained from clinic staff.

Qualifying for assistance from Colorado's program usually depends on the severity of your condition and financial circumstance. Read our full guide to Colorado's program.
A community counseling agency is a group therapy practice that offers affordable mental health services. Most are independent non-profit agencies, state agencies, or publicly-funded agencies. A few may restrict who is eligible for services, so it is a good idea to check when you call.
Community counseling agencies are generally more affordable than other therapy providers, but how much more affordable they are will depend on whether you qualify for a discount or sliding scale fee (or if they accept your insurance). Many, but not all, have a policy that they won't turn away anyone due to inability to pay. You should ask about their fees when you first call.
Expect to talk to kind people who want to help you find the care you need. Most community agencies strive to connect you with a live person within 24 hours, if not immediately. If you're asked to hold or leave a message, don't give up; just leave a message and wait. You should hear back pretty quickly.
Most agencies try to set up an initial assessment appointment within a week (some do within 24 hours), though the waitlist to start therapy is usually longer—about a few weeks on average. If you're not eligible or if the agency is not right for you, it's usually still worth it to call or drop in, because staff are knowledgeable about local options and can often refer you to one.
