Question 1

What will we do in sessions?

Accepted Answer

That's a good question and one that people frequently have before they begin. As you can imagine, therapy is a lot of talking. You get to decide what we focus on each session and can tell me if we start talking about something that is too uncomfortable.

Question 2

How long will I need therapy?

Accepted Answer

Everyone’s therapy journey is different. Some people only want to address a single issue and can make progress toward their goal(s) in a short timeframe. Other people want to do more in-depth work and like to work with their therapist ongoingly.

Question 3

How often do I need to come to therapy?

Accepted Answer

Again, everyone’s therapy journey is different. We usually start with weekly sessions to build momentum toward achieving your goals. Once you’ve made some progress, we can adjust the frequency of sessions based on your own individual needs.

Question 4

Do you provide teletherapy services?

Accepted Answer

Yes, at this time we are only providing teletherapy services. Even when we return to in-person services in an office, we will still offer a teletherapy option for clients.

Question 5

Do you provide in-person services?

Accepted Answer

At this time, we are only providing teletherapy services. We anticipate returning to the office for in-person services at some point in the future but do not have any timeframe for that at this time.

Question 6

Can I be a client if I don't live in San Diego or Sonoma County?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely! Thanks to the option of teletherapy, we are able to offer services to anybody residing in California. Because of state licensing restrictions, we are only able to see clients who reside in California and who are located in Califorina at the time of the session.

Question 7

What are your fees for therapy?

Accepted Answer

Our fees for individual and couples therapy range from $145/session for an Associate-level therapist working under the supervision of a licensed therapist fully to $175/session for a fully-licensed therapist. Our fees for individual and couples therapy range from $145-$175 per session, depending on the experience and licensure level of the therapist. We also offer a "pay what you can" scale and reduced fee options for clients who are unable to pay our full fees.

Question 9

Do you offer reduced fee sessions?

Accepted Answer

Yes, our Associates are able to offer reduced fee options for clients that allows you to pay whatever is comfortable for your budget within a specific range. We call this "pay what you can" and reserve it for clients in financial need.

Question 10

What is your cancellation policy?
