FAQ
1. What is a mental health group practice?
Rather than relying on one therapist, patients may have access to professionals with different specialties, approaches, and areas of experience.
2. Why choose a group practice instead of an individual therapist?
If your needs change, your therapist becomes unavailable, or you need a different specialty, a group practice may be able to offer additional options without requiring you to start your search from the beginning.
3. What makes your practice different from an online therapy platform?
Our practice combines the convenience of telehealth with access to a broader clinical team and the option for in-person care.
Our goal is to provide individualized mental healthcare based on your needs – not simply match you with the first available provider.
4. How are your therapists selected?
When matching you with a therapist, we consider your needs and goals as well as the therapist’s experience and availability.
5. Do you offer specialized therapy?
Because we have a broader team than a typical solo practice, we can often help connect you with a therapist whose experience more closely matches your specific needs.
6. Can I see another therapist at the practice if my needs change?
One benefit of a group practice is that you have access to therapists with different areas of expertise. Your needs may change over time, and your care can change with them.
7. What happens if my therapist leaves the practice?
As a group practice, we may be able to help you transition to another therapist within our practice who is appropriate for your needs.
8. Will AI be used in my therapy sessions?
Your treatment is based on the relationship between you and your clinician, including your clinician’s professional judgment, experience, and understanding of your individual needs.
If technology is ever introduced into your care in a way that affects your treatment or the handling of your information, we will provide appropriate information about its use and privacy implications.
Your care is personal. Your therapist is a person – not an algorithm.
Your mental health starts with you. Let us help you on your journey.
