FAQ's

You don't need to. That's our job. Tell us what's going on in your first session and we'll recommend an approach and explain why.

No. All sessions are virtual, which means you can see us from anywhere in Michigan.

It depends on what you're working on. Most clients start weekly and we reassess at six weeks. Some concerns resolve in a few months. Deeper trauma work takes longer, and we'll be honest with you about that.

Yes, at any time, and you don't need to justify it. Fit matters more than continuity.
