Frequently Asked Questions

That is okay! We will figure it out together. Sometimes life can feel so jumbled and it can be helpful to have someone outside of your family and friends to sort through it all.
-
During your first session, we take time to understand where you are and what you need. There is no set agenda—this is your journey, and we work together to shape what it looks like. The first few sessions focus on building connection and trust, allowing you to determine if this feels like the right fit for you.
We prioritize creating a safe, supportive environment where you feel comfortable sharing at your own pace. Your experiences are deeply valued, and everything we do is tailored to meet you where you are and support your individual needs.

Sessions typically happen once a week for 6-12 weeks, depending on what you are needing as an individual. Sessions can occur longer than this, or shorter. Therapy is truly an individual process and does not look the same for every single person. As you begin to feel more confident in your ability to apply the skills you’ve learned in therapy to your everyday life, sessions take place less often and usually go to every other week or less than that, as a follow-up. Frequency can be discussed and catered to your individual needs.

Counseling can be a scary and daunting experience that is often avoided by many. If you are feeling nervous, anxious, or scared about starting this process, you are not alone. Almost everyone feels that way about something they have never done before, especially when it comes to dealing with difficult things in your life. Let yourself feel those emotions and we will work together to help you gain comfort and safety in the therapy process.

What does better and happy even look like? It may feel distant, unattainable, and too long of a journey. One that feels so daunting you wonder if it is even worth your time and energy. You question if you have the strength to face the pain. The pain that you try to ignore and push down so far, hoping it will just go away, but it just keeps coming back. Overwhelmed, you find yourself feeling liks you could explode, its just too much.
You desperately seek relief from the pain that clings to you like a magnet. The pain that haunts you all day, unable to escape its grasp. Sleep feels like the best way to escape, to feel peace, yet the nightmares that come sometimes feel worse. The memories play over and over like a song stuck on repeat. They are a constant reminder of the horror you wish you could forget.
We can help you put the pieces of your life back together, to feel happy again. We provide a safe environment to face the events of your past and move on to a happier and more fulfilled you. Help you find your inner strength and develop who you want to be for your future! -
Every session is aimed to meet your needs. We believe that counseling is a collaborative process between the therapist and client and a journey which can bring remarkable changes for you as the client. Counseling is not an easy process and we understand that there can be hesitation to pursue the start of your healing journey. We strive to validate and encourage your experiences, as they are valuable and important.
When you come in each week, we will check in and see where you are at in that moment. It may be different from where you were in our last session and we want you to know that we are not only going to focus on the past, but also what is going on with you in the present. We help you establish tools that you can use when you leave our office to help you manage the difficult feelings that you are experiencing. -
A helpful therapy that can be an option to you is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing). A few reasons why we love EMDR are:
1. It is a therapy that reaches many different issues that you may be experiencing. Common issues include: anxiety, panic attacks, sexual/physical abuse, phobias, disturbing memories, emotional distress, grief, and anxiety or fear around future events.
2. We also love EMDR because in some cases it is found to be much more effective in the healing process when compared to talk therapy.
