FAQs
What is LAUNCH, and who is it for?
LAUNCH is a therapy group designed for couples who want to break free from recurring conflicts, improve communication, and build a stronger, more connected relationship. Over 6 weeks, you’ll gain practical skills to enhance understanding, trust, and emotional connection.
How long does the group last, and what’s the time commitment?
The group runs for 6 weeks, depending on group preferences and insurance requirements. Sessions are held once a week and typically last 1.5 hours.
What if we can’t make every session?
Attendance is important for getting the most out of LAUNCH. If you miss a session, you’ll be expected to complete a telehealth check-in during the same week to review materials and stay on track with the group. This ensures you and your partner can continue making progress together.
What if we’re uncomfortable sharing or have social anxiety?
It’s normal to feel nervous in a group setting. LAUNCH is a structured, supportive space where the facilitator, Scott Mersino, LPCC, ensures a respectful and inclusive environment. You can engage at your own pace, and there’s no pressure to share more than you’re comfortable with. The focus is on learning and growth, not oversharing.
How much does LAUNCH cost?
The cost for the entire program is $449 with options to pay in full or split payments in a way that works best for you.
Do you take insurance?
This program is not eligible for insurance billing. The session types, length, and frequency do not qualify under any billable code. This is an educational program, not therapy.
