Frequently Asked Questions About Therapy  


For Frequently Asked Questions about Appointments, Fees, or Directions,
Click Here.

We have found that most of your questions can best be answered by talking with our office staff, Melissa Hickney, Joanne Allen or Mariana Karrasch. Some questions are also best answered by a therapist in a first session.

However, we have tried to summarize the answers to some of those questions here for your convenience.

Regarding the counseling we offer:

  1. What does it mean to “integrate” the insights of the behavioral sciences and
    the wisdom of Christian faith?

  2. Is this “Christian Counseling”?

  3. Is this professional counseling, psychotherapy and education?
     

  4. Do you use tools and techniques that are standard within the mental
    health community?

  5. Who is your typical client? What kind of people do you see?

  6. Are all of your clients Christians or church members?

  7. Can I request a specific therapist?

  8. How long does the therapy take? How many sessions should I anticipate?

  9. How often will I meet with my therapist?

  10. Do you prescribe medications?

  11. Am I committing to work with my therapist from the very first session?

  12. Do you use a couch for therapy like they show on TV or in comics?
