Question 1

Is talk therapy right for me?

Accepted Answer

Talk therapy is helpful for anyone who is willing! We all have things in our lives that can be difficult to navigate through, and at times can feel as if we cannot sort out the thoughts on our mind, or what decision to make. It is helpful to talk these things out to someone who is not here to judge you, but simply reflect back your thoughts and feelings, in order to help understand them and move through them. Sometimes by holding our many worries or feelings in, the result can be heavy feelings of depression, anxious feelings, or even physical symptoms. Talk therapy offers a space where you do not need to be embarrassed of what you may be experiencing, and can talk through it in a way to find the best solution. You should never feel you have to carry your burdens alone!

Can I use insurance?

Question 4

What will my first session look like?

It is important to feel comfortable and connected with your clinician, so you are able to express yourself openly and honestly in the work you would like to do.
