Therapy & Fees
What is therapy and how can it help you?
Therapy is a place for you to connect with a licensed mental health professional who can help guide you through difficult times in your life, help you sort out various life decisions and help you work on improving your relationships with other people. We will work together to decide what you want to work on.
The space is yours for discussing a range of topics, including:
feeling sad, lonely or depressed
feeling fearful or worried
having relationship difficulties
managing life changes (for example: marriage, divorce, new child, new job)
communication challenges (how to be assertive, conflict resolution)
identity problems (who am I, what do I want in my life)
resolving trauma
