Counseling for
Real-Life Changes

Many people seek therapy for a variety of reasons—from managing specific mental health conditions to simply wanting a dedicated space to process life’s transitions and stressors. If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or just want to understand yourself better, therapy can be a valuable tool. If you are looking for real help and want to go deeper, therapy can also help you explore your patterns, understand where they come from, and work toward meaningful change.

Finding the right therapist is an important part of the process. You should feel comfortable, respected, and heard. It is okay if the first therapist you meet is not the right fit. We can help you find a therapist whose approach, experience, and personality align with your needs.

The first session looks different for everyone. There is no one script or set of questions that we follow with every person. We want to understand what brings you to therapy, what you hope to change, and what feels most important to you.

You are also in control of where the conversation goes. If you are ready to talk about something deeper or something that has been hurting you for a long time, you can start there. You decide what you want to share, how much you want to share, and what you feel ready to talk about. Our role is to meet you where you are, listen, and help you move forward in a way that feels meaningful to you.

Yes. We offer both in-person and online therapy, including video and, when appropriate, phone sessions.

For adults, online therapy can be just as effective as in-person therapy and may offer greater flexibility. When possible, we may recommend starting with a few in-person sessions to establish a strong therapeutic connection before transitioning online.

For children, we generally prefer in-person therapy because it allows us to observe behavior, communication, and emotional responses more naturally. However, telehealth may be appropriate depending on the child's age, needs, and treatment goals.

Most therapy sessions are approximately 50 minutes. Online sessions are the same length as in-person sessions.

If you are late, your session will generally still end at the scheduled time. We encourage you to arrive or log in on time so you can make the most of your session.

A limited number of reduced-fee appointments may be available. Contact us to discuss current options.

That is okay. Depending on your needs and circumstances, phone sessions may be available instead of video sessions.

Yes. We accept several insurance plans, which are listed on our website. Insurance coverage and benefits vary by plan, so we recommend confirming your benefits with your insurance provider before starting therapy.

The length of therapy is different for everyone. At Talk to Wes, we believe therapy is most effective when it allows enough time to understand the underlying patterns, not just address what is happening in the moment. Our goal is to provide meaningful, lasting support rather than short-term, temporary solutions. The length of treatment depends on your individual needs, goals, and progress.

Sometimes, it is okay not to know. Therapy is not always about solving a specific issue or finding an immediate solution. Sometimes, it is simply about having a space to slow down, reflect, understand yourself better, and talk through what you are experiencing. Your therapist can help guide the conversation when you are not sure where to begin.
