Wondering if it's time to see a therapist? Maybe you're curious about therapy, but you wonder if you really “need” it. Have you recently experienced a stressor or traumatic event? Have you been experiencing changes in mood, sleep, or appetite? Have you been feeling “off,” or have you been feeling shame or loneliness? Any of these can be signs that it may be time to see a therapist.

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.
We accept most major insurances.
Whether insurance covers couples or marriage counseling varies on your insurance provider, policy, and coverage. In most cases, marriage counseling can be billed to and paid for using the mental health benefits included in most health insurance plans. If you or your partner are considering couples or marriage counseling, it is recommended that you check with your insurance provider to see whether it is covered under your insurance plan. If your insurance does not cover couples or marriage counseling and you need to pay out-of-pocket, many therapists offer sliding scale fees.
