How do I find a therapist near me?

What's the difference between a therapist and psychiatrist?

Therapists provide talk therapy and counseling services. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can prescribe medication in addition to providing therapy. Both are essential parts of mental health care.

How much does therapy cost?

Therapy costs vary by location and provider. Many therapists accept insurance. Contact providers directly to discuss fees and insurance acceptance. Some offer sliding scale fees based on income.

What should I expect in my first therapy session?

Your first session typically involves discussing your goals, background, and current concerns. The therapist will explain their approach and answer any questions. It's a chance for both you and the therapist to see if you're a good fit.

Is therapy confidential?

Yes, therapy is confidential. Therapists are bound by ethical and legal requirements to protect your privacy. There are rare exceptions involving safety concerns, which your therapist will explain during your first session.

Do you offer telehealth/online therapy options?

Many of our providers offer telehealth services, allowing you to attend sessions from home. Contact providers directly to ask about their online therapy options and technology requirements.
