How do I know if a therapist is right for me?
The therapeutic relationship is everything. That's why we offer a free consultationΓÇöso you can get a feel for your potential therapist before committing. Trust your gut. If it doesn't feel right, we'll help you find someone who's a better fit.
Do you accept insurance?
We operate on a self-pay model, which means no insurance hassles, no claims to file, and no surprise bills. Many clients prefer this for privacy (sessions don't go on your medical record) and simplicity. We offer transparent, competitive rates with flexible payment options.
Is therapy really confidential?
Absolutely. Your sessions are protected by law and strict ethical guidelines. We use HIPAA-compliant, encrypted platforms for all communications. The only exceptions are mandated reporting situations (risk of harm to self or others, abuse of minors/elderly/disabled persons).
What happens in the first session?
Your first session is about getting to know you. We'll discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals, and what you hope to achieve. There's no pressureΓÇöit's a conversation, not an interrogation. You'll also have time to ask questions and see if we're the right fit.
How does telehealth therapy work?
You'll connect with your therapist via secure, HIPAA-compliant video from any private location. All you need is a device with a camera and a stable internet connection. Most clients use their phone, tablet, or computer from the comfort of home.
