{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"How can seeing a therapist help me?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Everyone has different needs and faces different challenges in life. Sometimes, these challenges can be difficult to face on your own. A therapist is a second person to help you develop self-awareness, examine those challenges critically, and face them head-on. Seeing a therapist can help you develop healthy coping skills, process underlying trauma, gain professional guidance for day-to-day life, develop emotional regulation and insight, and improve your relationships with others."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Who do you work with?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"We work with individuals, couples, and families facing concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress, relationship challenges, and difficult life transitions. Whoever you are, and wherever you are in your walk in life, we want to help you handle whatever challenges you may face with care and support."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How do I pay for your services?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"We require a credit card on file for all payments. This helps us facilitate payments easily and quickly, ensuring your account is always up to date and your care continues uninterrupted. You will always be charged at the time of service, never before."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Do you take insurance?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"We've made the intentional decision to forego insurance in favor of a self-pay model. This allows us to focus our full attention on your care and tailor our approach to you, instead of spending our time battling with insurance companies that may be at odds with what's best for your well-being."}}]}
