Before you begin.
Here’s what to expect from sessions, what coaching covers and how to book.
Ask our teamHow do I choose between therapy and coaching?
Therapy addresses emotional distress and mental health concerns that affect daily life. Coaching focuses on goals, decisions and accountability; it does not diagnose or treat mental health conditions. You can discuss which fits during a 15 minute welcome meeting. Talk through your options
What can I expect in my first therapy session?
Your therapist will ask what brought you in, what has been happening and what you want to change. You’ll also talk about your background and ask questions about how therapy works. You do not need a polished explanation before you arrive.
How long does therapy take?
There isn’t a fixed number of sessions. You and your therapist will choose goals, discuss how often to meet and revisit what’s helping as you go.
Is therapy confidential?
Therapy is confidential, with exceptions such as risk of harm or situations where disclosure is required by law. Your therapist can explain these limits and answer privacy questions before you begin. Read our privacy policy
What can I work on with a life coach?
Bring a decision you keep delaying, a career change you’re considering or a goal you haven’t followed through on. Our coaches work on the steps and accountability involved. Jared also offers coaching around addiction recovery and relapse prevention. Coaching does not replace mental health treatment. Meet our coaches
How many coaching sessions will I need?
A single decision and a change you’re trying to sustain may need different amounts of time. Bring the goal to your first conversation so you and your coach can agree on a pace.
How do online sessions work?
We offer therapy by video throughout Florida. You must be physically in Florida during each session. Start with a 15 minute welcome meeting; after you book a session, you’ll receive details for joining. Ask about online sessions
What do I need for an online session?
Choose a private space with a stable internet connection. You’ll need a computer or phone with a working camera and microphone.
How do I request a change in session format?
Contact our team before your appointment with your preferred format and the location you’ll attend from. We’ll check your provider’s availability and confirm the change before you attend. Explore session options
Do you accept insurance?
We accept select insurance plans for therapy. Our coaching services are not covered by insurance. Share your plan name with our team so we can check coverage and explain session fees before you book. Ask about coverage or fees
