Therapy FAQ

  • Therapy is beneficial for anyone seeking support, clarity, or emotional healing. It’s not just for people with mental health disorders; therapy can help you manage:

    • Stress and anxiety

    • Depression

    • Trauma or grief

    • Relationship problems

    • Self-esteem or identity issues

    • Career concerns

    • Personal growth

    You don’t have to wait for a crisis to seek therapy. If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or simply want to better understand yourself, therapy can be a valuable tool.

  • While there’s no universal rule, some signs that therapy might be helpful include:

    • Persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or overwhelm

    • Anxiety or worry that interferes with daily life

    • Difficulty managing stress or emotions

    • Struggling to form or maintain healthy relationships

    • Feeling disconnected or unfulfilled in life

    • Difficulty processing a loss, trauma, or major life change

    Even if you’re unsure whether your challenges “qualify” for therapy, a consultation with a therapist can help you decide if it’s the right step for you.

  • Yes, therapy is confidential. I use HIPPA Compliant platforms to ensure your privacy is protected, such as SImplePractice. Therapists are bound by ethical guidelines to protect your privacy, which means they cannot share what you discuss without your permission. However, there are a few exceptions:

    • If the therapist believes you are in immediate danger of harming yourself or others.

    • If there is suspected abuse or neglect of a child, elderly person, or vulnerable adult.

    • If a court orders the release of records in legal situations.

    Your therapist will explain these limits of confidentiality during your first session.

  • All therapy sessions are conducted via secure telehealth (video) sessions. I do not offer in-person appointments.

  • I offer a free brief consultation call to help you determine whether we might be a good fit to work together.

    During this call, we will:

    • Discuss what’s bringing you to therapy and what you’re hoping to work on

    • Review my approach to treatment and how I typically work with clients

    • Go over practical details such as scheduling, fees, and telehealth services

    • Answer any questions you may have about the therapy process

    Consultation calls are typically 10–15 minutes long and are not a therapy session. Rather, they are an opportunity for you to get a sense of my style and for us to decide whether moving forward together feels like a good match.
