faq
Excellent q! Newcomers are welcome. You can expect a space where you can share what your world is like, as much or as little as you want to and listen to the (often relatable) experiences of others.
You can also check out what GoodTherapy.org has to say.
We sometimes start with an introduction round, followed by a check-in where you are invited to share how you’re doing and for the rest of the session we explore some themes that are coming up for some or all of us and we end with a check-out before the session ends. Or sometimes it’s totally different. We’ll witness the format that emerges together!
It’s hard enough to do the work of therapy without also having to explain your family culture, justify your values, defend your experiences of oppression, and keep your racial identity from being erased or over-dramatized. I get that!
Not sure about our fit? Reach out for a conversation so we can get to know each other.
Yes, group and one-to-one work complement each other really well and offer unique and distinct growth opportunities.
Learn about funding sources for therapy on the Resources page.
Yes, we accept HSA & FSA cards and group therapy is considered a healthcare expense.
Due to the labor of love involved in preparing the group, your deposit is non-refundable for any reason. Please check your schedules ahead of time! Fees are for membership and are billed at the beginning of the month for that month’s sessions.
No, it’s not possible to drop-in for single sessions. Group members commit to attending group until they have met their goals, and not sooner than 6 months after their first session.
