Therapy is an opportunity to discuss/talk about issues that are important to the client while having a trained objective person (Therapist) help work through not only the current situation but in dealing with similar situations in the future. Therapy can be about one specific problem, or it can be about multiple. Something to mention is that therapy is a collaborative event, it requires an active role from both the client at the therapist for change to occur.

Therapists can provide support, problem-solving skills, and coping strategies for a wide range of issues. Therapists, being objective, can provide a different or fresh perspective on a problem that you have been struggling with. Some benefits can include, boosting self-confidence or improving self-esteem, improving communication skills, learning/finding new coping skills, attaining a better understanding of yourself, changing old patterns and developing new ones, or managing your emotional feelings such as sadness, anger or other highly charged emotions you may be feeling.

The initial session will be an initial assessment to discuss the client’s history and needs for treatment. During this first session, the client will have the opportunity to see how therapy will work, review office policies, privacy, and confidentiality, as well as determine whether or not they are comfortable with the therapist. If the client does determine this therapist is not a good fit, the therapist will provide referrals to other providers.

Yes! I currently accept BCBS at this time. I encourage you to call your insurance number on the back of your insurance card to ask what the cost of therapy would be for you prior to scheduling an appointment.

This can be a few days to a month max depending on scheduling and appointment availability.

No, I cannot. I am able to get you a list of referrals to better help your needs.

Typically, sessions last 40 minutes to 60 minutes. Clients typically meet on a weekly or bi-weekly basis depending on the client’s needs. The length of time while in therapy will depend on the individual client’s circumstance. The therapist and client will determine that together.
