How we deliver lasting improvement
We’re proud to provide best-in-class mental health care for a wide variety of emotional and behavioral challenges. Here’s how we do it.

Gold-standard behavior therapy
We lead with evidence-based care. Our therapists primarily use CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), the gold-standard, first-line treatment for anxiety, depression, and other common mental health challenges. CBT helps kids, teens, and young adults develop practical skills they can use every day for lasting emotional resilience.
Close collaboration with parents
Parents are essential partners in the therapy process, which is why our care model includes ongoing training and support just for you. We offer scheduled parent training sessions using BPT (behavioral parent training), a research-backed approach that helps parents manage emotional and behavioral challenges at home with confidence and consistency.
We also encourage regular check-ins with your child’s therapist between sessions, so you can stay in the loop and feel supported every step of the way.
Providers with the tools to succeed
Our licensed therapists and clinicians are specially trained to work with children and adolescents across all stages of development. But we don’t stop at credentials — we invest in continuous growth.
Every provider spends 15% of their weekly time in expert-led consultations, clinical case review, and ongoing training, ensuring that they’re always equipped to deliver the highest quality care. Because better-supported therapists mean better outcomes for your child.
Online Therapy that Works
Here are some of the most common challenges that kids & teen face and seek therapy for
Anxiety Therapy for Kids & Teens in Georgia
Anxiety is the most common mental health concern Handspring treats, and one of the most treatable. Our licensed Georgia therapists specialize in evidence-based anxiety therapy for kids and teens — including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, separation anxiety, panic attacks, and school-related anxiety. Using approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and exposure therapy, our Georgia anxiety therapists help children and adolescents build real coping skills they can use at home, at school, and with friends. If your child struggles with persistent worry, avoidance, physical symptoms like stomachaches before school, or sleep problems driven by anxious thoughts, teen anxiety therapy with Handspring can help. Sessions happen over secure video from the comfort of your home — which many anxious kids actually prefer over in-person appointments.
ADHD Therapy for Kids & Teens in Georgia
ADHD looks different in every child, and our Georgia ADHD therapists tailor treatment to how your child’s ADHD actually shows up — whether that’s trouble focusing in school, emotional dysregulation, impulsivity, or executive function challenges like starting homework or managing time. Our ADHD therapy for kids combines behavioral strategies, parent coaching, and skills training that help families build structure without constant conflict. For teens, our Georgia therapists focus on self-advocacy, study skills, and managing the emotional side of ADHD — which is often the part that gets missed. We don’t prescribe medication, but if your child is already on an ADHD medication (or you’re exploring whether medication might help), our therapists coordinate with your pediatrician or psychiatrist to make sure therapy and medication work together.
Depression Therapy for Teens in Georgia
Teen depression is rising, and it rarely looks like adult depression. In teens, it often shows up as irritability, withdrawal from friends and activities, changes in sleep or appetite, or a drop in school performance — not sadness. Our licensed Georgia therapists specialize in depression therapy for teens using evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and behavioral activation. We work with your teen on the thought patterns driving their depression, help them reconnect with activities that used to bring joy, and — when appropriate — involve parents so the whole family feels supported. Virtual sessions make it easier for teens who are already struggling to show up. If your teen has been withdrawn, hopeless, or just “not themselves” for more than a few weeks, teen depression therapy is worth exploring.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does child therapy cost in Georgia?
Most families pay under $30 per session with insurance. Without insurance, sessions are $125. Your first consultation is always free.
What ages do you treat?
Handspring Health provides therapy for children, teens, and young adults ages 8 to 29.
Do you accept my insurance in Georgia?
We accept Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, and Optum in Georgia.
Is virtual therapy as effective as in-person?
Research consistently shows that virtual therapy is just as effective as in-person for most mental health conditions in children and teens. Many kids actually prefer it because they're in a comfortable, familiar environment.
How do I get started?
It's easy — book a free consultation and we'll match your child with a licensed Georgia therapist who specializes in their specific needs. Most families start therapy within 1–2 weeks.
Will my child see the same therapist each session?
Yes. Your child works with the same licensed therapist every session — consistency matters, especially for kids and teens building trust with a new adult. In the rare case a therapist change is needed (a move, a schedule conflict, a specialty mismatch), we handle the transition carefully and keep you informed every step of the way.
What happens in the first therapy session?
The first session is mostly about getting to know your child, understanding what’s been going on at home and school, and starting to build rapport. Your therapist will ask questions, explain how sessions work, and talk through goals with you and your child. It’s low-pressure by design — we don’t dive into the hardest topics on day one.
Can teens attend therapy without their parents in the room?
Yes. Teens typically meet with their Georgia therapist one-on-one over video, while parents stay informed on progress, safety, and how to support their teen at home. For younger kids we involve parents more directly. Laws on minor consent vary — your therapist will walk you through what applies in Georgia and how confidentiality works for your family.
