Questions? We Have Answers.

Whether you are new to therapy or ready to return, here are the questions we hear most often.

Do I really need therapy?

If something in your life feels harder than it should, therapy can help. You do not need to be in crisis; many clients come because they want to feel better before things reach a breaking point.

How do I know which therapist is right for me?

When you reach out, we learn about your situation and match you with a therapist who specializes in what you are going through. If the fit is not right, we help you find someone who is.

Do you accept insurance?

Please contact us for current insurance information. We are happy to discuss payment options during your initial call.

What happens in the first session?

Your first session is about getting comfortable. Your therapist will ask what brought you in, learn about your background, and set initial goals with you. It is a conversation, not an interrogation.

Do you offer virtual sessions?

Yes. We offer teletherapy via phone or video for clients who prefer remote sessions or cannot make it to our San Pedro or Long Beach offices.
