Frequently Asked Questions

Therapy is a supportive space where you can talk openly about what you are going through. A therapist helps you understand your thoughts and feelings, spot patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build practical tools to feel better. Many people find that over time they feel less overwhelmed, more grounded, and better able to handle what life brings.

We offer a range of evidence-based therapies, including EMDR, DBT, CBT, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Therapy can be helpful for anyone feeling stuck, stressed, or simply wanting to understand themselves better. You do not need to be in a crisis to benefit. If something in your life feels heavy or hard to manage on your own, including relationship struggles, past experiences, or the stress of parenting, therapy is a good place to start. It is a sign of strength, not weakness, to ask for support.

You can book an appointment by visiting our 'Contact' page or reaching out to us directly via email or phone.

The first session is mostly about getting to know each other. Your therapist will ask about what brought you in, a little about your background, and what you are hoping to get from therapy. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions and determine whether the approach feels like a good fit.

The length of therapy varies depending on your individual goals and needs. Some clients attend short-term therapy focused on a specific concern, while others benefit from longer-term support. Sessions are typically 50–60 minutes long and are scheduled based on your preferences and clinical needs.

The consultation call typically lasts 10–15 minutes and allows us to briefly discuss your needs, answer questions, and determine whether the practice feels like a good fit.

Yes. Trauma therapy is one of the core areas of focus here, including childhood trauma and experiences that happened early in life. Trauma does not have to be a single event. It can be the result of ongoing stress, emotional neglect, difficult family dynamics, or experiences that left you feeling unsafe or alone. Therapy provides the space to process what happened and begin to heal at your own pace.

If you need to cancel or reschedule, please provide advance notice according to the practice policy. This allows the appointment time to be offered to another client in need of services.

Attachment-based therapy looks at how your early relationships, with caregivers, family, or significant people in your life, have shaped the way you connect with others today. It can help you understand patterns in your relationships, build more secure connections, and heal from painful experiences that started long before adulthood.

Yes. Parenting an autistic child brings immense joy and also very real challenges that are not always visible to those around you. Many parents carry grief, exhaustion, worry, and guilt alongside their deep love for their child. Therapy offers a space to process all of it without judgment, strengthen your own wellbeing, and explore how to better support both yourself and your family.

Research consistently shows that virtual therapy is just as effective as in-person therapy for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. Many people actually find it easier to open up from the comfort of their own home. The most important factor is the quality of the therapeutic relationship, and that can absolutely be built online.

Session fees are available on the fees page or by getting in touch directly. Some people are able to use insurance, employee assistance programmes (EAPs), or out-of-network benefits to offset the cost. It is always worth checking with your insurance provider. Reduced-fee options may also be available, so do not hesitate to ask.

Yes. Sessions are available in both English and Spanish. For many people, it is easier to talk about deep or emotional topics in their first language. Being able to express yourself fully, without searching for words, can make a real difference in therapy. You are welcome to choose whichever language feels most natural, or to move between both.

Language carries more than words. It carries culture, identity, and the way we understand our own experiences. A bilingual therapist can meet you in the language where your emotions live, and also understand the cultural context that shapes your life and relationships. This can make therapy feel more seen and more relevant to your actual experience.
