ABOUT OUR PRACTICE

Frequently asked questions

We believe therapy works best within a supportive, collaborative relationship. Our therapists use evidence-based approaches tailored to each client’s concerns, strengths, values, and goals.

When you contact us, our staff will ask for basic information about your needs, scheduling preferences, insurance, and whether you prefer in-person or telehealth sessions. We’ll then help identify a therapist who may be a good fit and has current or upcoming availability.

Your first session is an opportunity to discuss what brings you to counseling, ask questions, and identify initial goals. Your therapist will explain their approach and work with you to plan appropriate next steps.

A Welcoming Place to Begin

Reaching out can feel like a big step. Our team is here to answer your questions, explore available options, and help you find care that feels right for you.
