As humans, we do our best day in and day out — but we weren’t designed to navigate every challenge alone. My job as a Christian therapist for adults, children, teens, parents, and families is to step in as a facilitator of transformation so you can restore lost connection, heal from past trauma, and reclaim the joy and freedom you’ve been craving.

Autism Evaluations
ADOS-2 Assessment
At New Pathways, we primarily use The Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-Second Edition (ADOS-2).
The ADOS-2 is a semi-structured, gold-standard assessment used to help diagnose autism spectrum disorder from as young as 12–18 months through adulthood. This widely respected tool allows clinicians to observe an individual’s natural communication, social interaction, play, and behavioral patterns in a supportive and engaging setting.
During the 45–90 minute session, a trained clinician guides the individual through a series of structured and unstructured activities—such as storytelling, imaginative play, or conversation—to evaluate how they respond and interact. The ADOS-2 is divided into modules, each selected based on the person’s age and verbal ability, ensuring the assessment is both developmentally appropriate and accurate.
At New Pathways Counseling, we use the ADOS-2 alongside parent and caregiver input to gain a full picture of a child’s strengths, challenges, and developmental needs. This process helps families gain clarity, direction, and access to the right resources and supports for their child’s continued growth.
Why consider an evaluation?
Every child develops at their own pace, but sometimes caregivers notice differences in how their child communicates, plays, or interacts with the world around them. An autism evaluation can offer clarity and support in understanding your child’s unique strengths and challenges.
Early insight can open doors to valuable resources, services, and strategies that promote growth and connection, no matter where your child is on their journey.
New Pathways Counseling is considered an out-of-network mental health provider, meaning we do not accept insurance directly. We can accept HSA cards or provide a copy of a paid invoice for you to submit to your insurance provider. Reimbursement from your insurance is dependent on the coverage provided by your insurance policy for out-of-network mental health providers. Some policies will reimburse you for out-of-network visits, either partially or in full, so it is worth contacting them to find out.

Medication Management
with Jessi Sigler, PMHNP-BC
At New Pathways Counseling, we understand that mental health is multi-dimensional—sometimes emotional healing also requires medical support. That’s why we’re proud to offer Medication Management as part of our comprehensive approach to care.
Led by Jessica (Jessi) Sigler, PMHNP-BC, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, our medication management services are designed to work hand-in-hand with counseling to help individuals and families find balance, stability, and hope.

Are you experiencing any of the following:
Is Medication Management right for you?
depression or mood instability
anxiety or panic disorders
behavioral or emotional difficulties in children
bipolar disorder
adhd or focus-related challenges
What is Medication Management?
Medication management involves evaluating, prescribing, and monitoring psychiatric medications to support overall mental wellness. It’s a collaborative process where Jessi partners with you to understand your symptoms, history, and goals to determine whether medication may be a helpful part of your treatment plan. It is available for children (ages 5+), teens, and adults and can be combined with counseling services for a holistic approach to care.
Our Approach
We believe in treating the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Jessi takes time to listen, educate, and empower each client, ensuring they feel informed and supported throughout their journey. By combining counseling and medication management, clients often experience improved emotional balance, greater self-awareness, and lasting progress toward healing.
At New Pathways, you’re not just receiving treatment—you’re gaining a team dedicated to walking alongside you with compassion, faith, and clinical expertise.
Initial Evaluation: $150
Follow-Up Appointments: $100
Your first appointment includes a comprehensive assessment where Jessi takes time to understand your history, current symptoms, and treatment goals. This visit typically lasts longer than a standard follow-up to ensure a personalized and effective care plan.
Follow-up sessions focus on medication monitoring, progress review, and adjustments as needed. These appointments help ensure that your treatment remains effective and supportive of your ongoing mental health goals.
