Is my information and conversation private and secure?
Your privacy and confidentiality are our top priorities. Our platform uses secure, encrypted communication to protect all your information and conversations.
How do I know if I need a therapist or a psychiatrist?

The addiction counselor will ask about your history of substance use, current challenges, and your goals for recovery. They will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan and provide support and resources.
How long are the sessions, and how often should I have them?
Sessions are 1 hour long. The frequency of sessions can vary based on your individual needs and treatment plan. Your therapist, psychiatrist, or counselor will work with you to determine the best schedule.
What if I need help outside of regular appointment times?
Our platform may offer resources such as crisis hotlines or emergency contacts. For urgent matters, it's essential to seek immediate assistance from local emergency services or crisis intervention resources.
How do I pay for the services, and does insurance cover them?
You can pay for services using a credit card or other payment methods. Depending on your provider and plan, many services may be covered by insurance. We recommend checking with your insurance company and verifying coverage before your appointment.
