Client Investment
The hope of Nerd Adventure Therapy 20 is to promote a comfortable environment for clients to use their passions and hobbies to relate to their world. This is an innovative approach to help reduce stigma and hesitation in accessing therapy services. Like other conventional therapy methods, investing in your mental well-being is an overall health investment. While NAT20Therapy endorses a secure and casual environment, our services come with a financial commitment to your health.
You will invest in yourself by attending scheduled sessions, participating in the therapeutic process, applying what you have learned, and improving your life. Our clinicians help facilitate that process and collaborate with you for your treatment. You are the expert on your experience, and we are here to help guide you with our expertise.
