Frequently Asked Questions

 
How is the Third Wave Center different than most existing therapeutic models?
We are an affordable monthly membership holistic therapeutic wellness center grounded in evidenced-based modern psychological practices combined with Zen Buddhist philosophy.  Think of us like a gym for your mind!  We are an all day, every day Center.  That means - come at any time, if not just to hang out!  We focus on therapy that meets the individual where they are at  along with cultivating general skills of compassion for self and others, mindfulness, ethical living, and community responsibility.  We intend for holism in the truest sense of the term.
 
What is the membership commitment?
All memberships include a 3-month initial commitment. After 3 months, plans auto-renew month-to-month. You may cancel anytime before the next billing cycle begins.
 
How do makeups work for groups?
Members may make up a missed session within the same week (space permitting), or later when that module repeats. Because modules are sequential, members attend the same group each week for continuity.
 
Do unused sessions roll over?
To support progress and skill acquisition, sessions do not roll over. Consistency is part of the therapeutic process.
 
Do you take insurance?
We are a private pay membership; however, we've created a membership that is flexible with your income level.  Bottom line - we don't want to deny you psychological and behavioral health care because you cannot afford it.  Reach out to us at (512) 586-9857 if you need to.  There are options!
 
Can I pause my membership?
We understand that things come up and memberships may have to be paused for qualifying circumstances (such as medical or family leave). We ask that you provide us written notice for this and we'll hold your spot.
