How can therapy support me?

Therapy offers a confidential, nonjudgmental space to reflect, process, and reconnect with yourself. It can support greater emotional clarity, self-understanding, and intentional growth—while offering practical tools to help you navigate life’s transitions, relationships, and inner landscape with greater steadiness and self-trust.

Our work together is collaborative, thoughtful, and tailored to your unique needs and season of life.

What can I expect during the first session?

Your first session is an opportunity to establish safety, trust, and direction. We’ll explore what has brought you to therapy, discuss relevant background information, and begin identifying your goals for care. This session sets the foundation for your therapeutic work and allows us to determine next steps that feel aligned and supportive.

There is no pressure to share everything at once—therapy unfolds at your pace.

How long are sessions?

Standard therapy sessions are 45–50 minutes in length.

How long does therapy last?

The length of therapy varies depending on your goals, needs, and the nature of what you’d like to explore. Some clients seek short-term support around a specific transition, while others engage in ongoing therapy for deeper reflection and growth.

Your care is not time-limited or prescriptive—it is shaped collaboratively and revisited as your needs evolve.

I feel unsure or nervous about starting. Can I learn more before committing?

Absolutely. It’s natural to have questions or feel uncertain when considering therapy. A complimentary 15-minute consultation is available to help you learn more, ask questions, and determine whether this feels like a supportive fit for you.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes. We currently accept a range of insurance plans, including:

Aetna, Anthem, CareFirst Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Oscar, Oxford Health Plans, UMR, GEHA, and several additional employer-based and behavioral health networks.

Insurance eligibility and benefits are verified prior to beginning care.

What are the fees for services without insurance?

Self-pay therapy sessions are $200 per session. Payment is due following each session.

Do you offer virtual or in-person sessions?

Heal + Restore Counseling is a virtual-only practice. All sessions are conducted via a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, allowing for flexibility, privacy, and continuity of care.
