FAQs
1. What is Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT)?
Marriage and Family Therapy is a type of counseling that supports individuals, couples, and families in improving their relationships and overall well-being. MFT therapists are specially trained to understand how personal challenges, relationship dynamics, and family patterns all connect—and how to help you work through them in healthy, supportive ways.

2. Do I need to have a “big” problem to go to therapy?
Not at all. Therapy isn’t just for crisis or major issues—it’s also a space for self-reflection, growth, and support during everyday stress or life transitions. If something is on your mind, big or small, therapy can help you gain clarity, build resilience, and feel more grounded.
3. What can I expect during therapy sessions?
Therapy sessions are a space for open, honest conversations in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. I’ll listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and help guide you through challenges using approaches that fit your unique needs. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on and work toward the goals that matter most to you.

4. How long does therapy typically last?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer—therapy looks different for everyone. Some people find a few sessions helpful for working through a specific issue, while others benefit from longer-term support. We’ll work together to create a plan that fits your goals, your pace, and your life.
5. Is therapy confidential?
Yes, therapy is confidential. Your privacy is very important, and everything you share in session is kept private. The only exceptions are rare situations where there is a risk of harm to yourself or others, or when required by law. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I follow strict ethical and legal guidelines to protect your confidentiality.

6. How can I prepare for my first therapy session?
You don’t need to do anything special to prepare—just come as you are. If you’d like, you can reflect on what’s been on your mind, what you’re hoping to work on, or jot down a few questions. The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other, talk about what’s important to you, and begin creating a space where you feel safe and supported.
