Heal with US
Asking for help is hard; and I'm so glad you are here. It can feel scary to reach out to a therapist for the first time. And very scary if you worry about how you feel, wonder if therapy is right for you, or worried about what’s next.
Let us walk you through the process.

FAQs
-
For the first session, you and the therapist will meet by video for 60 minutes. In this session, you will get to know each other and discuss your goals for therapy. You will decide how often and how long to meet for sessions.
You can bring your stuff to talk about, and the therapist can bring some education and skills to help you towards your goals.
-
There is no set answer; therapy takes as long as it takes. You and the therapist will use the goals set in the first session as measurement for progress. Usually, clients see improvement in 3-6 months, but you can decide with your therapist based on your progress. You can always add new goals as you learn more about yourself.
-
The therapist’s role is to establish a nonjudgmental, safe space in which you can share your thoughts and feelings. They will bring education and skills to the session to support progress towards your goals. They may ask questions to guide you through exploration of your thoughts and beliefs. They may provide an alternative perspective.
