Questions
How do I choose the right therapist?
We offer free initial consultations to help you find the best match. If the first therapist doesn't feel right, we'll arrange a second consultation with another team member.
Do I need a doctor's referral?
No referral is required to book therapy sessions. However, some insurance plans may require physician referrals for coverage verification before reimbursement.
What is virtual therapy like?
Virtual therapy uses secure video conferencing platforms for real-time sessions. You'll receive a private link to join sessions from your preferred location with technical backup available.
How does payment work?
We accept major credit cards and e-transfers. Session fees process automatically after each appointment with e-receipts provided. We require 48-hour cancellation notice to avoid charges.
What if I have financial limitations?
Therapists work within clients' financial constraints by focusing on achievable goals and avoiding open-ended exploration that might exceed budget limitations while maintaining therapeutic effectiveness.
