FAQ

How long does counseling take

It depends on your situation and the complexity of the issues you are wanting to work on. In general I encourage people to commit to at least 10 sessions and see where we go from there. 

 

I must be crazy for having to see a therapist

This is not true at all. None of us were born with a book describes exactly how to do life and how to do it well. We have to create and write our own book as we go through life. Counseling is a tool to help you write your own manual for life. It can help you grow in self-awareness so you can better understand yourself and how you function in the world. It gives you a better understanding for how others are functioning around you. Overall, therapy invites people to do life differently and brings them more inner peace. 

 

can I get a prescription for medication from therapy?

I cannot prescribe any medication. 

 

Someone in my life needs therapy, can I schedule for them?

Unless this person is under the age of 15, no. However, I encourage you to give them referrals of therapists they could call and explain to them the benefits of therapy (especially personal stories if you have gone  to therapy yourself).
