Getting started as a new patient is easier than you think.

Whether you're ready to schedule or still figuring out if Brightline is the right fit, this page will point you in the right direction. Here's everything you need to get started.

What happens after you reach out

From your first call to your child's first appointment, our engagement team walks you through every step. Here's what that looks like:

  • A real conversation with our engagement team; not a form, not a voicemail

  • Answers to your questions about care, cost, insurance, and our clinicians

  • A scheduled evaluation appointment before you hang up

  • After your evaluation sessions, your engagement team helps you schedule the right next step, whether that's therapy, psychiatric services, psychological testing, or a combination.

How Brightline can help your child

Brightline treats anxiety, ADHD, OCD, depression, autism spectrum disorder, disruptive behaviors, learning differences, and more. Depending on your child's needs, care may include:

  • Therapy, in-person at a Brightline clinic or online

  • Psychiatric services, including medication management and medication consults

  • Psychological testing for kids who need a deeper evaluation

What are specific types of anxiety?

Brightline accepts most major insurance plans. Before your first appointment, we'll verify your coverage and let you know what to expect out of pocket, so you don’t have to deal with any surprises.

What to expect from care

Care at Brightline follows a clear, structured path — from your first evaluation all the way through treatment and beyond. Every step is designed to give you and your child clarity, confidence, and a plan that actually works.

What To Expect Illustration
  • Your child's care begins with a diagnostic evaluation to give us a deep understanding of your child's needs, strengths, and what's getting in the way

  • Based on those conversations, your clinician shares their impressions and builds a care plan with you

  • From there, your child's path may include therapy, psychiatric services, psychological testing, or a combination — based on what the evaluation recommends

  • Throughout care, parents are involved every step of the way. What happens at home matters as much as what happens in session

    Care at Brightline is built around measurable goals with a real endpoint.
