Frequently Asked Questions

Many people do on-line courses in addition to working with an individual therapist. Courses can serve the role of adding to traditional therapy and giving you more to work on in between your sessions. Some people actually choose to bring elements of what they are working on in the course into their work with their therapist. However, if you do not have a therapist currently and find that working on the course is bringing up feelings where you need more support, then I would encourage you to reach out to someone. A good resource for finding a therapist in your area is to visit www.psychologytoday.com.

Possibly. That depends on what state you reside in; I am currently licensed in VA, CO, and all PSYPACT states. If you decide that you want traditional therapy, you can feel free to reach out to me about that option, however my therapy practice (Growth & Resilience Psychological Services) tends to have an on-going waitlist. If you reach out and I am not able to work with you, then I can help direct you towards other resources for finding a therapist.

An on-line course is cost-effective, you can complete it at your own pace, and you can customize the material to fit your own needs. Also, you can work on the course at any time of day that fits with your schedule rather than showing up at a specific appointment time. One consideration regarding on-line courses is that they do tend to involve a lot of homework, so you have to be prepared to follow through with the assignments in order to get the most out of the material.
