 FAQs

  • Finding a good therapist is an important step in your healing journey. Like in any profession, there are highly skilled and ethical therapists, but there are also those who may not be the right fit for you. The best way to start is by seeking recommendations from someone who has experienced meaningful healing with a therapist. Firsthand referrals from friends, family, or trusted professionals can help you find someone with a proven track record of effectiveness and integrity.

    Beyond recommendations, here are key factors to consider when choosing a therapist:

    1. Integrity & Ethical Standards – A good therapist operates with transparency, professionalism, and strong ethical boundaries. They should uphold confidentiality, avoid conflicts of interest, and prioritize your well-being over their personal or financial gain.

    2. Experience & Specialization – Look for someone with substantial experience in the field and expertise in working with concerns similar to yours. Therapists with diverse experience can tailor their interventions to your specific needs.

    3. Knowledge of Different Modalities – Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. A skilled therapist should be well-versed in multiple therapeutic approaches (e.g., psychodynamic, CBT, attachment-based therapy, psychodrama) and able to adapt their method to suit your personality, history, and goals.

    4. Clinical Insight & Effective Interventions – A strong therapist doesn’t just listen passively but knows how to make thoughtful, strategic interventions that challenge unhelpful patterns, expand self-awareness, and foster healing. They should be able to assess when to offer support, when to encourage action, and when to gently push for deeper reflection.

    5. A Strong Therapeutic Connection – Research consistently shows that the quality of the relationship between therapist and client is one of the biggest predictors of success in therapy. You should feel safe, understood, and respected. If you don’t feel a connection after a few sessions, it’s okay to seek someone else.

  • Therapy is an individualized process, tailored to each person’s unique needs, history, and goals. The length of therapy depends on several factors, including:

    • Your starting point – Your emotional and mental state when beginning therapy influences the pace of progress.

    • Your goals – Short-term therapy may be effective for those seeking support through a life transition, while deeper, long-standing challenges—such as childhood trauma, attachment wounds, or complex relational patterns—often require longer-term work.

    • Family conflict & relational work – When therapy involves family dynamics, addressing conflicts, or repairing relationships, additional time may be needed. Preparing each family member through individual sessions before bringing them together in a family setting allows for more productive conversations and reduces reactivity.

    • Your level of engagement – Progress depends on how actively you participate, both in and outside of therapy. Applying insights, practicing new behaviors, and integrating changes into daily life accelerate growth.

    • Logistical considerations – Coordinating sessions for multiple family members, scheduling conflicts, and ensuring each person has space to process their emotions can add to the timeline.

    • The therapeutic approach – Some structured methods, like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), may provide symptom relief in a few months, while depth-oriented therapies, such as attachment-based or psychodynamic therapy, often require more time to address underlying patterns.

    For some, therapy is a short-term intervention (a few months) offering tools for immediate concerns. For others, it is a longer journey, fostering deep healing and transformation. Progress is not always linear, but with the right therapist and a strong commitment to the process, meaningful change is possible.

  • Our practice is out-of-network, meaning we do not bill insurance directly. However, many insurance plans offer out-of-network benefits, which can reimburse a portion of therapy costs. Clients should check with their insurance provider to determine their specific coverage.

    Key Insurance Terms to Understand:

    • Out-of-Network Benefits – Some insurance plans will reimburse therapy with providers outside their network, but coverage varies.

    • Deductible – This is the amount you must pay out of pocket before your insurance begins reimbursing you. For example, if your out-of-network deductible is $2,000, you must cover that amount in medical expenses (including therapy) before your insurance contributes.

    • Coinsurance – Once your deductible is met, your insurance may cover a percentage of the session cost, while you are responsible for the rest. For example, if your plan covers 60% after the deductible, you would pay the remaining 40% per session.

    • Superbill Submission – After each paid session, we provide a superbill, an itemized receipt containing all necessary details for insurance claims. Clients can submit this document to their insurance company for potential reimbursement.

    How to Check Your Coverage:

    1. Call your insurance provider and ask about out-of-network mental health benefits.

    2. Inquire about your deductible and whether it applies to mental health services.

    3. Ask about coinsurance—what percentage of the cost will be covered after the deductible is met.

    4. Find out how to submit a superbill for reimbursement.

    While using out-of-network benefits requires some extra steps, it allows you to choose a therapist based on fit and expertise rather than insurance network restrictions.

  • Yes, therapy works—but its impact varies depending on the person, the challenges they face, and the therapeutic approach. Some experiences can be worked through and integrated, leading to a greater sense of well-being and improved relationships. Other challenges may not completely disappear, but therapy can help reduce distress, build resilience, and create meaningful change in how they are managed.

    • Growth & Integration – Some experiences can be processed in a way that allows for emotional relief, deeper self-understanding, and healthier relationships. This can lead to greater clarity, improved decision-making, and a stronger sense of self.

    • Symptom Relief & Coping – Some difficulties may persist to some degree, but therapy provides tools to manage them more effectively, lessen their impact, and cultivate a greater sense of control and balance.

    • A Safe Space for Change – Therapy offers a non-judgmental space for exploration, emotional expression, and skill-building. Even when challenges remain, how you experience and respond to them can shift significantly, leading to greater fulfillment and agency.

    Part of the growth process in therapy is opening up to new perspectives. This expanded view of yourself, your relationships, and your life allows for deeper understanding, which ultimately leads to more intentional choices and emotional freedom. Therapy helps you gain a clearer, more compassionate perspective on your life and empowers you to live in alignment with your values.

  • Yes, therapy is confidential, meaning that what you share in sessions is private and will not be disclosed without your consent. However, there are exceptions dictated by law where a therapist is required to break confidentiality, including:

    • Risk of Harm – If there is a credible threat of harm to yourself or others, the therapist is legally obligated to intervene to prevent harm.

    • Child or Elder Abuse – Therapists must report any suspected abuse or neglect of children, elderly individuals, or vulnerable adults.

    • Court Orders – If a court subpoenas records or requires testimony, a therapist may be compelled to release certain information.

    • Danger to the Community – If there is a threat to the safety of the community or a specific individual, a therapist may need to take action.

    To ensure greater confidentiality, one step you can take is to opt out of using insurance for therapy. By not submitting superbills or claims through insurance, your therapy remains private and won’t be documented in insurance records, providing an extra layer of confidentiality.
