FREQUENCY OF SESSIONS

HOW OFTEN SHOULD WE COME TO COUNSELING?

Therapy works best when clients come in weekly. By the time many clients come to therapy they are really ready for a change. Having weekly sessions helps to get the process started, and helps to gain some momentum. Many things can be happening on a daily basis, and having weekly sessions allows opportunity to discuss those things as they happen and leaves less time for things to fester. We will be continually evaluating the way things are going, and when you begin to feel relief and goals are being met, your therapist will discuss when meetings can become less frequent - typically in the termination phase of therapy.

LENGTH OF TREATMENT

HOW LONG SHOULD WE CONTINUE TO COME TO THERAPY?

Each person and situation is different and most clients come to therapy for 8-20 sessions, but the length of treatment is always up to you and your therapist. The length of treatment is based on the amount of change you want to make, how deep your hurt is, and how committed you are to making lasting change.

INSURANCE

WHAT IF I WANT TO USE MY INSURANCE?

We do our best to keep our work with clients separate from insurance companies. In doing so, we find that clients are able to better reach their goals, and make more progress in therapy. Often times insurance companies dictate the amount of sessions that clients need, and how work should be completed.

We believe that these decisions should be made by the client and therapist. Insurance companies also require that we make a clinical mental health diagnosis, which we do not believe is necessary in order for treatment to be effective. While we do not provide insurance billing, we can however provide you with a receipt which is accepted from some PPO insurances, and a reimbursement may be provided.

Not working with insurance gives clients the utmost choice and control over their healing process, and it gives us the ability to set lower fees, and to have more time to focus on clients, which is what we really love to do!

PAYMENT

WHAT PAYMENT METHODS DO YOU ACCEPT?

You may pay with cash, check, debit or credit card. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.
