Online Family Therapy in New York

Family therapy sessions conducted online are 60 minutes in duration, giving each participating family member time to speak and engage with the therapist.

Yes, every session is kept private between your family and the therapist. No one else joins unless you request for them to be included.

While many families start with around three members, there is flexibility in who can join. Though we advise a cap of 12 for session effectiveness, larger families are also welcome to participate.

If a member portal account is not created during your registration, you’ll attend your therapy sessions by clicking on video links sent to your email address each week. After confirming your signup, you’ll be sent a message with your therapy match. Then, 24 hours before each session, another email will arrive with a unique video link for that week. Each of these links will be different, as they are updated every week.

On the other hand, if you do go through the portal creation process while signing up, your future sessions will take place inside that member portal, apart from your first consultation. For that initial meeting, you will get a confirmation email containing a custom video link. Once that session is complete, you can log into the portal for all future therapy appointments.

Several models are used in online family therapy, with each one crafted to support stronger communication, more connected relationships, and smoother family dynamics. These commonly include:

• Structural Family Therapy: Looks deeply at how family members are organized and relate to one another, then provides strategies to shift those patterns in ways that foster clarity, stability, and respect.
• Brief Strategic Family Therapy: Centered on clearly defining goals and interventions, this modality assists families in resolving conflicts by modifying behaviors and redirecting interactions.
  
• Narrative Family Therapy: A powerful approach that assists families in externalizing their challenges and rewriting the language they use to define themselves and each other.
  
• Attachment-Based Family Therapy: Helps build more secure, emotionally responsive relationships, especially for children and teens who struggle with feeling emotionally supported by their caregivers.

• Confidentiality
  The privacy of every therapy session is fully respected and upheld. No information is shared without consent.
• Respectful communication
  A cornerstone of therapy is fostering a non-threatening environment where family members feel safe to speak openly. Therapists may introduce tools to encourage calm and constructive exchanges.
  
• Clear roles and responsibilities
  In therapy, family members often uncover misunderstandings about who is responsible for what. Clarifying roles can significantly ease interpersonal tensions.
  
• Healthy boundaries between family members
  Learning to set appropriate limits, whether emotional or physical, is essential. Therapists provide strategies to help establish those boundaries in a supportive way.
• Respect for cultural and individual differences
  Understanding and respecting each person’s unique background is a vital part of the process. The therapist assists the family in recognizing and appreciating these distinctions.

No matter your family's structure, whether you’re a parent and child, adult siblings, part of a multi-generational household, a stepfamily, or caregivers, online family therapy offers valuable support. If you're working through disagreements or simply seeking stronger connections, therapy helps improve how families relate and communicate at every stage of life.

Family therapy could be helpful if your family is:

• Dealing with arguments that keep resurfacing or a lack of effective communication
• Navigating big life transitions, including separation, loss, relocation, or caring for a loved one
  
• Trying to manage the strain of mental health issues, substance dependence, or physical illness affecting the household
  
• Living with ongoing tension between generations, parents and children, or adult siblings
• Discovering that personal therapy has not fully resolved concerns stemming from family dynamics
• Feeling weighed down by trauma or repeating generational habits
• Motivated to come together and create lasting, positive changes in how your family functions

Even when your family is not facing a crisis, therapy can enhance emotional connection and promote lasting harmony.

Protecting your personal health data is our top concern. Grouport uses secure technology that meets HIPAA requirements, along with encryption tools to keep your information private.

✅ HIPAA-Compliant – We follow strict privacy regulations to safeguard your data.
✅ End-to-End Encryption – Ensures that your sessions remain completely private and secure and that our systems protect your private health information

Nothing is shared without your agreement, and we make it a point to hold ourselves to the highest confidentiality standards.

Each family therapy session at Grouport is priced at $160. For families choosing four sessions per month, the total monthly cost is $640. This rate is favorable compared to traditional family therapy options, where sessions in the U.S. typically range from $175 to $300 for an hour.

$160 per week ($640/month) – billed monthly

• Covers 4-5 sessions per month at the same flat monthly rate
• On average, sessions cost $148 each over time
  

✅ Discounts available when adding multiple sessions per week.

You can choose to pay your family therapy:
✅ Monthly – Standard rate, billed every month.
✅ Quarterly (Save 10%) – Billed every 3 months.
✅ Biannually (Save 20%) – Billed every 6 months.

Plans are set to auto-renew according to the billing frequency you choose. Depending on your situation, you can schedule sessions weekly or every other week.

Grouport exists to ensure that therapy is not only high in quality but also financially accessible to families across the country. Our pricing reflects this mission. Because months average slightly more than four weeks, you may sometimes receive five sessions within a single billing cycle at no additional cost. This structure brings down your average cost per session over time.

✅ Family Therapy: Averages $148 per session ($640/month) (vs. $175-$300 per session elsewhere)

💡 Even More Savings:

• Extra discounts when adding more sessions per week.
• Pay quarterly (save 10%) or biannually (save 20%) for even lower rates

Although we do not accept insurance directly, we maintain our pricing at $160 for each 60-minute family session, which is more affordable than the standard U.S. range of $175 to $300. When spread out over months that include five sessions, this brings the average cost of therapy with us to about $148 per session.

If you’d like to use your insurance for out-of-network benefits, we can provide an invoice after every billing period. Many clients are able to obtain partial reimbursement by submitting these documents to their insurance companies, depending on their individual plan’s terms and policies.

Yes, changes to your subscription are allowed at any point. You can increase or decrease your session count or switch to a different billing frequency depending on what works best for your family. Any changes made will take effect immediately.

✅ Upgrading your plan

•  Adding more sessions per week (e.g., 1 session/week → 2 sessions/week).
• Switching to a longer billing cycle (e.g., Monthly → Quarterly).
• You’ll be charged a prorated difference based on the time remaining in your current plan.

✅ Downgrading your plan

• Reducing the number of sessions per week (e.g., 3 sessions/week → 1 session/week).
•    Switching to a shorter billing cycle (e.g., Quarterly → Monthly).
•    This will result in a credit applied to your next renewal.

If you decide to cancel your subscription, you may do so at any time. You will still have access to your sessions through the end of your current billing cycle. To cancel, please contact support@grouporttherapy.com, and we will send you a short form to complete to finalize the cancellation of your family's membership.

Your membership will not be considered canceled until the form is completed and submitted. If it is not, your subscription will continue to renew and remain active. Once the form is processed, your services will end when your current billing period concludes.


✅ No long-term commitment – cancel whenever you need.
✅ Full access through your last monthly billing period after canceling.

There may be weeks when your family has to reschedule a therapy session due to unexpected obligations. You can work with your therapist to arrange a different time during that week, as long as you provide enough advance notice. To help maintain consistency and streamline planning, we do ask that these types of changes are kept to a minimum. If your family’s overall schedule shifts and you need a new recurring time slot for therapy, our team and your therapist are here to assist in finding a new regular session time that fits better into your weekly schedule.
