What should I look for in choosing a therapist?
-
Trust, rapport, and feeling seen are crucial aspects of effective psychotherapy. The key is to find a therapist who can understand your experience, who reciprocates respect, and with whom you feel capable of discussing deeply personal issues.
What type of therapy modality would be best suited for me?
-
At Alloy, our clinicians are trained with a specialized emphasis on either Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Psychodynamic Therapy. However, all of our clinicians tailor the treatment to the clients's needs, integrating aspects of various modalities for a personalized psychotherapy experience.
Will my therapist prescribe medication?
-
Psychotherapy is an intervention that is distinct from medication and medication management. If you and your therapist are considering medication, it would involve a separate consultation with a referred prescriber.
What should I expect from a first session?
-
You can expect to explore your reasons for seeking therapy, your personal history, and your treatment goals. It is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions about what the therapy process might look like.
How will therapy help me?
-
Therapy can help by providing a space to explore and understand your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and how important events from the past might be informing the patterns in your life today. Over a period of time, increased self-awareness and insight often translates to personal change. Therapy also offers personalized strategies and tools to manage stress, resolve conflicts, and cope with challenges more effectively
What will therapy cost me?
-
At Alloy the cost of therapy varies depending on whether or not insurance is used, the licensing stage of the clinician, and on the client's financial constraints. Contact us for more information about low-cost therapy options.
