General
No, we do not. However, in cases where medication is necessary for treatment, we have preferred psychiatrists we coordinate care with in order to get you the help you need as soon as possible.
While both psychiatrists and psychologists understand how the brain works in order to treat and diagnose mental illness, there are a few key differences between them.
Psychiatrists are medical doctors who are able to prescribe medication, treat complex mental conditions, and require a referral.
Psychologists are licensed professionals at either the doctoral or master’s level, diagnose and treat emotional and behavioral disorders, and do not require a referral.
Therapy sessions typically last between 45 and 60 minutes, but some therapists may offer shorter or longer sessions depending on your needs.
Our network of therapists use a variety of evidence-based approaches tailored to each client's unique needs. This can include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused therapy, and other modalities. When you explore our network of therapists, you can review each therapist's specialties and approaches.
Therapy can be helpful for anyone looking to improve their mental health, manage stress, or work through challenges. You might consider therapy if you're experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma or PTSD, relationship issues, life transitions, or simply want support in understanding yourself better.
Psychotherapy, often referred to as talk therapy, is a treatment for mental health issues that involves talking with a licensed mental health professional. It can help individuals understand their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors and develop coping skills for dealing with life's challenges.
Billing & Insurance
We accept most major insurances.
In some cases, marriage counseling can be billed to and paid for using the mental health benefits included in most health insurance plans. When this is not the case, the couple can pay out-of-pocket without using insurance.

Existing Patients
After your first therapy session, additional appointments can be scheduled directly with your therapist. At the end of your first appointment, you can discuss with your therapist whether you'd like to set a repeating session date and time or schedule sessions as you go.
