What to Expect in Therapy
Starting therapy can feel awkward, intimidating, exciting, relieving, or all four at once. Whether this is your first time in therapy or your fifth therapist, here's exactly what happens when you get started with us.
We're a fully online group practice based in Oklahoma, also serving California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Texas, and Utah. Our team of licensed social workers actually specializes in this stuff: trauma, anxiety, ADHD and neurodivergent affirming care, and LGBTQIA+ affirming care, plus plenty more.
Starting Therapy in Five Steps
Find Your Therapist
Nobody clicks with everybody, and that's completely fine. Take a look through our providers, read about what each of us actually does, and find the one who feels like the right match for what you're carrying right now.
Schedule a Free Consultation
Found someone who feels right? Awesome sauce. Every therapist offers a free 15-minute consultation by phone or Zoom. This isn't a therapy session, it's a chance to ask questions, get a feel for how we work, and decide whether we're a good fit for each other. We'll be real with you: we don't automatically click with everyone we meet, so it'd be a little wild to assume you'll pick a stranger online and instantly click with them. If we're not your people, no hard feelings. We'll help you find someone who is.
Complete Your Intake Paperwork
Once you decide to move forward, we'll send your paperwork through our secure client portal. Consent forms, practice policies, insurance info if you're using it, and a little background so we're not starting from zero. Most people knock it out online before their first session.
Attend Your First Session
Your first appointment is called an intake session, and it's where we lay the foundation for everything that comes after. Here's the thing though, you don't need to show up with a perfectly organized timeline, the right words, or your whole life figured out. That's our job to help with. And you won't be the only one feeling a little awkward. We promise that trepidation goes both ways, and we'll work through it together.
Find Your Rhythm
Therapy doesn't run on a fixed schedule. Together we'll decide how often to meet, whether weekly, biweekly, or monthly, what to focus on, and which approaches fit you. Most people start out meeting more often and space sessions out as things steady.

Still Have Questions?
No worries, we've got a bunch of answers. If you don't see yours here, reach out.
Then we figure it out together. You don't need an agenda, a tidy story, or the right words. Honestly, half the work is naming the thing you couldn't name on your own.
Cry away. We're not going to flinch, and there's a reason therapists keep tissues within arm's reach. Tears usually mean we landed on something that matters.
Then we sit for a second, and that's allowed. Quiet is often where the real stuff finally surfaces. But guiding the conversation is literally our job, so we won't leave you flailing.
No. We've heard a lot, and we mean a lot. You're not going to be the one who finally shocks a social worker.
Both can be true at once. Remember, we already told you we don't click with everyone, so if we keep showing up for you, that's a real yes.
Only if you aim the camera at it. Blur your background, sit in your parked car, build a blanket fort. We care about you, not your laundry pile. And it goes both ways. You're not seeing what's stacked up on our side of the screen either.
Tell us about it. Knowing what didn't work is genuinely useful information, and switching until the fit is right is normal, not dramatic.

Most people start weekly and spread out to biweekly or monthly as things steady. We decide that together, not on a script.
