FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you take insurance?
Yes! I am currently paneled with Lyra, Aetna, Optum, and Cigna insurance companies.
What is a typical therapy appointment?
The therapist will ask questions about
your presenting concerns, as well as
your history and background. Most
likely, you'll find yourself talking
about your current symptoms or
struggles, as well saying a bit about
your relationships, your interests, your
strengths, and your goals.
What benefits can I expect from working with a therapist?
Therapists can provide support,
problem-solving skills, and enhanced
coping strategies for issues such as
depression, anxiety, relationship
troubles, unresolved childhood issues,
grief, stress management, body image
issues and creative blocks.
Will I be 'cured' after receiving a certain number of therapy sessions?
Every person along with their background,
life circumstances
and challenges can be so different. While
there may not be
a definitive answer to a patient feeling
cured after a
certain number of sessions, therapy can
assist you in
improving the quality of your life. You may
find yourself
being able to calm your worrying mind,
identify negative
self-talk, find resolutions in your
relationships, feel
more motivated about your future, and
process past trauma.
Therapy can be a continued resource which
you can access
in different stages of your life as you need
it.
