    At Root to Crown we value accessibility, and believe that all humans deserve high-quality mental health care, regardless of if they hold financial privilege or not. For this reason, we offer some sliding scale spots in our caseload, and developed The Abundance Therapy Fund to assist BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) clients that experience financial hardship in supplementing the price of therapy. True Cost of Service $150 Sliding Scale mid-range $100 Sliding Scale low-range $60* *If you still cannot afford the low-range, feel free to reach out to see if Root to Crown has any availability to meet a lower range with the therapy fund. This is not guaranteed, and will shift and change depending on the financial contributions from the individual’s supporting The Abundance Therapy Fund. The following information regarding Sliding Scale and Financial Justice is adapted from Alexis J Cunningfolk’s blog. Here is a general guidelines about how I currently price my sliding scale and to help you determine where you fall on it. • The highest dollar cost reflects the true cost of the class or service. It is the cost that the practitioner would charge all students in the absence of a sliding scale. If you have access to financial security, own property or have personal savings, you would not traditionally qualify for sliding scale services. If you are able to pay for "wants" and spend little time worried about securing necessities in your life, you have economic privilege and power in our community. This price is for you. • The middle cost (when there is one) reflects the practitioner's acknowledgement that paying the full cost would prevent some folks from being able to attend, but who do not honestly find themselves reflected in either descriptions for the highest cost or the lowest. If you are struggling to conquer debt or build savings or move away from paycheck to paycheck living but have access to steady income and are not spending most of your time thinking about meeting basic needs such as food, shelter, medical care, child care, etc., you belong here. If you, however, can ask others for financial support, such as family members, partners, or friends, please consider using those personal resources before you use the resources of the sliding scale and limit opportunities for others. • The bottom cost represents an honest acknowledgment by the teacher and practitioner that there are folks whose economic circumstances would prevent them from being a part of classes if there was not be a deliberate opportunity made for them to access services at a cost that is reflective of their economic realities. If you struggle to maintain access to needs such as health care, housing, food, child care, and are living paycheck to paycheck or are in significant debt, you probably belong here and you deserve a community that honors your price as equal an economic offering as the person who can pay the highest tier. Even when the lower tier is still prohibitive, I will work with folks to offer extended payment plans and other solutions. Typically, there is a limited amount slots for products, services, and classes offered at the middle and lower end of the scale. Please be mindful that if you purchase a price at the lowest end of the scale when you can truthfully afford the higher ticket prices, you are limiting access to those who truly need the gift of financial flexibility. Being honest with yourself and your financial situation when engaging with sliding scale practices grows strong and sustainable communities. It also respects the work of teachers and creators, like myself, you have families to support and rent to pay. Additionally, when I am paid fairly, I am able to invest more time and resources to free and lower cost offerings.
