Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect during my first session?
Your first session focuses on creating an open and supportive space where we can understand your concerns, background, and goals. This helps establish the foundation for therapy and allows us to develop an approach that is tailored specifically to your needs and experiences.
Do you accept insurance? What is the cost out-of-pocket?
Session pricing depends on the type of service and session length. We accept insurance from MVP, CDPHP, Aetna, and Fidelis, with in-network coverage available through KLS Collective Therapists. We also offer flexible self-pay options and sliding scale fees for clients who qualify.
Does insurance cover online therapy?
Many insurance providers do cover online therapy, although coverage varies depending on your plan. We recommend checking directly with your insurance company for confirmation. For those without coverage, sliding scale options are available to help make therapy more accessible.
Do you offer in-person therapy in Staten Island, NY?
We do not offer in-person therapy at this time. All services are conducted online, providing clients from Staten Island with flexible and convenient access to mental health support through secure virtual sessions.
How do I know if therapy is right for me?
Therapy may be a good fit if you are looking for support with emotional challenges, personal growth, or improving coping skills. If you are uncertain, we encourage you to reach out so we can explore your needs and determine whether therapy is appropriate for you.
What is the cancellation policy for your mental health services?

Are sessions confidential?
Yes, confidentiality is strictly maintained in all sessions. We comply with HIPAA regulations and uphold strong privacy standards to protect your personal information at all times.
How can mental health support fit into a busy schedule?
Because therapy is offered online, it eliminates travel time and makes scheduling more flexible. Many clients find that virtual sessions help them stay consistent with their mental health care even with demanding schedules.
How can therapy help to build better mental health?
Therapy helps you better understand emotional patterns, work through challenges, and develop coping tools that support long-term well-being. Depending on your goals, we may also integrate methods such as EFT or The Gottman Method into your care.
What kinds of mental health conditions can online therapy help address?
Online therapy can provide support for individuals and families dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, relationship concerns, and other common emotional or psychological issues. The initial session is typically used to explore your needs, understand your goals, and identify the most appropriate type of support.
How does therapy support mental well-being over time?
Therapy offers ongoing support for managing stress, navigating life changes, and working through emotional challenges in a consistent and structured environment. Over time, this process can help build resilience, improve insight into patterns of thinking and behavior, and support healthier daily functioning.
Do you offer medication management as part of your service?
No. We do not offer medication management or prescribe medications as part of our services.
What should I know about getting mental health care online?
Online therapy with our licensed mental health professionals provides a flexible and accessible way to connect with a therapist from the comfort of your home or another private and secure space. The work often centers on understanding attachment patterns, which play an important role in how you relate to yourself and the people closest to you. Using evidence-based methods, we help you explore emotional patterns, improve relationship dynamics, and work toward lasting and meaningful change over time.
