THERAPY FAQ

ABOUT THERAPY

Psychotherapy can help you develop skills, and resources to address the emotions, situations, and relationships that bring you to therapy.  In a therapy session, therapeutic work is identified and a treatment plan is developed. Therapy varies according to the issues and needs brought by each client, and goals will be identified at your first session. Therapy also varies according to the training and education of the therapist you are working with.  Your therapist will provide you with more information about their methods, or you can read our therapist bios here to learn more.

HOW LONG IS EACH THERAPY SESSION?

Each therapy session lasts 50 minutes.
