Why is counselling so expensive?

A few ways of answering this, and I will start with the behind the scenes training and research involved in the process of becoming a therapist, as well as behind each uniquely tailored, custom designed counselling session. I would also like to reference a past client who spoke to the importance of maintaining health and wellness practices similarly to vehicle tune-ups, rather than waiting until something is wrong and needing to hire a tow-truck and then mechanic to fix it. Taking care of our mental and physical health is an important part of good living in all areas (relationships, careers, and how we show up in all of our diversified hats and are able to fully participate in fulfilling lives that support who we are).

How long does counselling take?

Again, there are so many ways of answering this. I like the idea of either choosing a goal or area to focus on, or giving a timeline to an area of focus. There are so many approaches to therapy, so many modalities, and so many ways to approach. Any time and money spent on your well being is time and money well spent.

Why therapy?

In a time where our minds are racing, relationships can be challenging, work is demanding, roles are abundant, stress is high, mental health is a growing concern, investing in your mental health and working with a trusted, trained therapist is an investment on the foundation where you build your life.
