Getting Started

How does virtual therapy work?

Sessions are held through a HIPAA-compliant video platform, similar to Zoom but designed for healthcare.

You’ll:

Receive a private link before your session
Join from your phone, tablet, or computer
Meet with your therapist in real time

Many clients find virtual therapy to be just as effective as in-person sessions, with added convenience and flexibility.

Do you offer therapy in New Jersey?

Yes. We provide virtual therapy to clients across New Jersey, including teens, adults, and couples. As long as you are physically located in NJ at the time of your session, you can meet with your therapist from the comfort of your home.

What happens in the first therapy session?

Your first session is focused on getting to know you and understanding what brings you in. We go at your pace and what feels comfortable to you.

We’ll explore:

Your current challenges
Your goals for therapy
Any relevant background

How long are therapy sessions and how often do I attend?

Sessions are typically 45–60 minutes and are usually scheduled weekly, especially at the beginning.

As progress is made, sessions may become less frequent depending on your needs.

Is therapy covered by insurance for anxiety?

In many cases, yes. Most insurance plans cover therapy for anxiety and related concerns.

Coverage depends on your individual plan, so we can help you verify your benefits before your first session.

What is Out-of-Network and Private Pay?

Out-of-network or private pay options allow you more flexibility and privacy with your care. You can usually start therapy sooner, as there is no wait time for insurance approval. Some insurance plans can limit the number of sessions you have; private pay affords you more control over your care.
