Not sure if you're ready for therapy? That’s okay!
Every journey is unique, and you can take steps when you’re ready. Therapy is here when you feel prepared to explore the possibilities.
Looking to start improving your mental health right now?
You can begin with mindfulness.
Mindfulness is simply paying attention to the present moment. By being fully present, you’re more aware of your surroundings, your body, and your emotions. Practicing mindfulness can help manage stress and anxiety and allow you to make better choices. These choices may include eating healthier, going to bed earlier, or knowing when to remove yourself from high-stress environments that aren’t conducive to your well-being.
Stay tuned for our upcoming mindfulness modules, which will offer deeper insights and practical ways to enhance your mental health.

Consider whether you’d feel more comfortable meeting from the privacy of your home or visiting a therapist’s office. Think about which setting will help you feel more at ease and open during your sessions.
Virtual Vs. In-Person
See if the therapist specializes in what matters to you, like LGBTQ+ issues, trauma, or anxiety. Also, consider their cultural competency or any other specific concerns. Finding someone who understands your needs can greatly enhance your therapy.
Area of Focus
Ensure the therapist accepts your insurance, offers flexible payment plans, or provides sliding scale fees based on income. Also, check if local nonprofits offer services at low or no cost. These options can help make therapy more affordable.

Costs
Ensure you feel a genuine connection with your therapist. Communicate whether you need someone who listens and helps you sort things out or someone who challenges you to grow. Understanding your goals and preferred approach is key to making progress and feeling comfortable and trusting in the process.
