Do you treat individuals or couples?
We treat both individuals and couples looking to receive therapy for depression.
What happens in the first session?
During your first session, your therapist will guide you through the therapy process, ask questions to understand your problem better and get to know you from a holistic perspective. Many individuals and couples find hope and relief in their first session after taking the critical first step toward improvement. This initial session frequently leads to new realizations and insights.
How often will I need to attend therapy?
You and your therapist will work together to figure out a schedule that fits your needs and lifestyle, whether it’s weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. Research has shown that individuals and couples who attend counselling regularly often find the most positive results. It’s all about creating a supportive routine that helps you thrive!
What are the rates?
It is common to feel concerned about counselling costs, but viewing it as a valuable investment in your well-being is essential. Taking this step for yourself can lead to meaningful change, and the cost of not seeking help can be much greater. Remember, many extended health care plans offer coverage for these services. Your health and happiness truly deserve this investment.
