Do you accept insurance?

We are out-of-network with all insurance plans. For therapy services, we provide a monthly superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. Many clients with out-of-network benefits recover a portion of their session costs this way. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits before starting.

What ages do you work with?

We specialize in working with teens, college students, young adults, and young professionals, typically ranging from ages 16 to 40s.

Do you offer virtual sessions?

Yes, we offer telehealth services throughout Connecticut and Virginia in addition to in-person sessions at our Westport office.

How do I know if therapy or career coaching is right for me?

We offer consultations to help you determine which services best fit your needs. Many of our young adult clients benefit from both.

What should I expect in a first session?

Your first session is a chance to share what's been going on and what you're hoping to get out of therapy or coaching. We'll talk through your concerns, get a sense of what's been working and what hasn't, and start to clarify your goals. By the end, we'll have a clearer picture of the situation and can discuss the best path forward—whether that's a specific treatment approach, a recommendation for additional support, or a plan for ongoing sessions. There's no pressure to dive deep right away; the goal is simply to get on the same page and make sure we're a good fit.

What's the difference between therapy and counseling

The terms are often used interchangeably. At our Westport counseling practice, we use evidence-based approaches like CBT and DBT whether you call it therapy or counseling—the goal is the same: helping you feel better and build practical skills.
