What to Expect

We won’t tell you who you are or what you should do.

Instead, we’ll help you become more curious about your own experience. Together we’ll explore what you’re feeling, what makes sense about it, and what possibilities might emerge as you begin to understand yourself differently.

We believe people make sense.

We believe people make sense. Rather than asking, “What’s wrong with you?” we begin with a different question: “Given what you’ve lived through, how does this make sense?” Our thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationship patterns are often intelligent adaptations to our life experiences. Understanding them with curiosity rather than judgment creates space for healing, self-compassion, and lasting change.

We follow what matters most.

Therapy isn’t linear.

Some weeks we’ll talk. Other weeks we’ll slow down and notice what happens in your body. Sometimes we’ll work with emotions, memories, dreams, relationships, values, or the practical decisions you’re facing right now.

Rather than forcing every client through the same process, we let the work unfold in response to what feels most alive and important.

Insight is important, but insight alone rarely creates change.

Understanding why you struggle can be deeply meaningful, but meaningful change usually requires more than understanding. Lasting change happens when new experiences become possible—when your nervous system begins to discover that the present is different from the past, your relationships become safer, your choices become more intentional, and your life gradually expands.

Costs & other practicalities

Each therapist in our practice sets their own rates, which currently range from $120–$180 per session.

We ask all new clients to attend therapy weekly, at least in the beginning. Consistency matters. Therapy is a relationship, and meeting weekly allows trust to develop, insights to build on one another, and new ways of thinking, feeling, and relating to take root. In our experience, weekly therapy leads to deeper and more lasting change than meeting sporadically.

The length of therapy varies widely. Some people come for a few months to work through a specific challenge, while others stay for several years as they continue to grow and deepen their understanding of themselves and their relationships. As therapy comes to a close, we typically taper to sessions every other week before ending. You are always free to decide how long you’d like to remain in therapy and we’ll regularly check in together about how the process is going, whether it’s meeting your goals, and when it feels like the right time to begin bringing our work to a close.
