Frequently Asked Questions
You Ask, We Answer with care and a dash of clarity.
We offer a wide range of services tailored to different needs and stages of life—including individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, play therapy for children, trauma-informed care, grief therapy, EMDR, and group therapy. Sessions are available both in person and online to support accessibility and comfort.
You don’t need to have it all figured out—that’s what we’re here for. During your intake process, we’ll learn more about what’s bringing you in, your goals, and your preferences. From there, we’ll match you with a therapist and approach that best fits your needs.
Your first session is all about getting to know each other. You’ll talk with your therapist about what’s bringing you in, what you’re hoping to work on, and any preferences or concerns you have. There’s no pressure to dive into everything at once—this is a space where you can go at your own pace. Your therapist may also ask about your history, symptoms, and goals so they can tailor the approach to what you need most.
Yes! We provide secure, HIPAA-compliant online therapy to clients anywhere in California. Whether you’re juggling a busy schedule or prefer the comfort of your own space, virtual sessions are a flexible, research-backed way to access high-quality care.
Trauma-informed therapy means we approach every session with the awareness that past experiences can shape present-day emotions, behaviors, and relationships. It’s not a single technique—it’s a framework built on empathy, safety, and empowerment. If you’ve experienced trauma, we move at your pace, always honoring your story and your resilience.
We work with clients across the lifespan—from children as young as three (through play therapy), to teens, adults, couples, and families. Our team includes therapists with specialized training in early childhood mental health, adolescent development, and older adult care.
Yes, we work with several major insurance providers. We’ll help you verify your benefits before you begin so you know what’s covered and what to expect. If we’re out of network, we can also provide superbills for potential reimbursement.
Most sessions are 50 minutes long. Frequency depends on your needs—many clients start with weekly sessions, then adjust over time. You and your therapist will collaborate on a plan that supports both consistency and flexibility.
Yes. Your privacy is incredibly important to us. We follow strict confidentiality standards outlined by law and professional ethics. There are a few rare exceptions (such as safety concerns), which we’ll go over clearly before you begin.
Yes—research and lived experience both say it can. Therapy has been shown to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and more. But it’s not just about symptom relief. It’s also about self-understanding, growth, and learning new ways to show up for yourself and your relationships.
Starting is simple. Just reach out via our contact form, give us a call, or send us an email. Our intake coordinator will guide you through the next steps—matching you with a therapist, verifying insurance, and getting your first session scheduled.
