Do I have to have a diagnosis?
If you would like to use your insurance benefits to cover the cost of therapy, yes. Insurance requires that mental health services be deemed medically necessary, and a diagnosis and treatment plan are established.
-
How often do I need to come to therapy?
Typically, it is recommended to attend sessions weekly, for at least 6 weeks. This allows us to establish rapport and work together to create a plan to best meet your needs. Regular attendance allows us to begin working toward your desired outcomes and for you to really start seeing some initial changes.
After 6 weeks, the frequency can be reviewed and adjusted based on your individual needs.

How long does it take to feel better?
Unfortunately, there is no one size fits all. The truth is, there are many factors that impact the length of time you are in therapy. Our goal is always to work toward your desired outcomes at a pace that feels safe and comfortable to your nervous system, and we will let your nervous system lead the way.

What is EMDR?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy that allows us to identify and reprocess memories and experiences that leave you feeling stuck in patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviors that don’t align with how you want to live your present life.
EMDR is an effective treatment for trauma as well as anxiety, depression, and a variety of other mental health symptoms and conditions.

What is Ego States Therapy?
Ego States Therapy is an approach that helps you understand and work with different parts of yourself. As humans, we all have parts of us that reflect different emotions, behaviors, or memories that show up in certain situations. For example, you might have an inner critic, a childlike part, or a nurturing part.
By identifying and connecting with these parts, we can work together to heal past wounds, resolve internal conflicts, and create a more balanced sense of self.
