Mental Health Services

Yes, all therapy, counseling, and psychiatry sessions are strictly confidential. Your privacy is our priority.

Therapy (or psychotherapy/counseling) is a confidential space where you talk with a trained mental health professional to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It helps you better understand yourself, cope with challenges, and develop healthier patterns of thinking and relating.

You don’t need to be in crisis to start therapy. You might benefit if you:

• * Feel persistently sad, anxious, or overwhelmed
• * Struggle in relationships or at work
• * Want help managing stress or life transitions
• * Have experienced trauma or loss
• * Simply want to grow or better understand yourself

Sessions usually last 45–60 minutes. You’ll talk about what’s been happening in your life, how you feel, and what you want to work on. The therapist listens, asks questions, and helps you explore healthier perspectives or coping strategies.

Yes. What you share in therapy stays private. The only exceptions are if your therapist believes you are in danger of harming yourself or someone else, or if they are required by law to report abuse or serious harm.

It depends on your needs. Some people come for a few sessions to work on a specific issue; others continue longer for deeper personal growth. You and your therapist can decide together what works best.

Common therapeutic approaches include:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors
• Psychodynamic Therapy – explores past experiences and emotional patterns Humanistic/Person-Centered Therapy – emphasizes personal growth and self-understanding
• Family or Couples Therapy – focuses on improving relationships

Yes. Research consistently shows that therapy is effective in reducing symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, and many other concerns — and helps people lead more fulfilling lives.

That’s okay — the relationship is key. You can discuss your concerns openly or look for a different therapist. Finding the right fit is part of the process.

Therapists don’t usually give direct advice. Instead, they help you reflect, identify patterns, and make decisions that align with your goals and values.

• * Think about what brings you to therapy and what you hope to gain
• * Be open and honest — there’s no right or wrong thing to say
• * You can also jot down questions to ask your therapist about their approach or confidentiality
