Not all. GIA’s Senior Clinicians are out-of-network. But don’t stop reading! Many of our clients use out-of-network (OON) insurance benefits. We will provide you with the necessary documentation to submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.

As a matter of fact, there are!
Sliding Scale Program for Current Clients: We believe in continuity of care. Each of our therapists reserves a limited number of sliding scale spots for current clients who are experiencing financial hardship and struggling to continue their treatment. If you're a current client and believe you might qualify, please contact our office to learn more and request a sliding scale application.
Affordable Options for New Clients: For new clients who don’t have coverage —or for those looking for a more affordable option—our Center for Clinical Training at GIA offers affordable and flexible fees. You’ll receive thoughtful, high-quality care, from an Intern or Associate Clinician who is enrolled in our supervised training program.
We're committed to helping you find a therapy option that fits your needs. Please don't hesitate to contact us to discuss these options further

The timeline for therapy looks different for everyone. Some people come in with a specific goal and stay for a shorter time; others choose to go deeper and stay longer. There’s no “right” way to do this—we’ll talk together about what you’re hoping for and shape a plan that supports you.
Most of our clients start out by coming in weekly, depending on what’s going on and what feels sustainable. We’ll check in regularly to make sure the rhythm is working for you.
Your first session usually lasts about 75-90 minutes. Group Therapy is also typically 75-90 minutes
We recommend full one-hour sessions for couples and families.
Iindividual therapy sessions are one-hour unless you and your therapist agree to meet for 45 minute appointments.
-
Yes, that is totally normal! However, we do our best to make the process comfortable. We believe therapy should feel like an interactive and ongoing comfortable conversation, and many clients in our office often describe their interactions with us as relatable and “real.” If you are nervous, please let us know so we can answer any questions you might have.

Did you know the quality of your relationship with your therapist can predict your improvement? In fact, overwhelming evidence shows that the relationship is as important as using the right treatment method. We recommend reading our therapists’ bios prior to your intake call. Together, we can decide what clinician may be the best fit. But if you don’t feel the connection, we’ll be glad to help you find a better match.
-
There are specific challenges that other providers may be more equipped to help you with. There may be certain circumstances when we will suggest alternatives to working with us. If this is the case, we will suggest additional resources for you to explore.
-
We know that it’s hard to find time for therapy, so each of our clinicians offers varying hours to accommodate your very full schedule. While a handful of our clinicians are on-site from 9 to 5, many also offer evening and weekend sessions. Remember, your therapist is a human – some are early birds, and others are night owls. So, the “strange” time that works for you may be perfect for your therapist, too!
Our office also offers telehealth through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform. This can be useful for folks who prefer the comfort of their own home.

Self-diagnosis, whether by TikTok video, internet questionnaire, or medical journal, can be tricky. If you feel a TikTok video or social media post reflects how you’re feeling, we’d like to hear about it- anything that lets us understand you is helpful! Diagnosis takes time and can be a complicated process. For us, the big focus is on how we can help you resolve the problems you are having, no matter what your diagnosis is.
