Frequently Asked Questions About Therapy
What is therapy and how can it help me?
Therapy is for anyone looking for support, personal growth or to cope with challenges. If you are experiencing difficulties in your life that are impacting your emotional well-being, relationships or daily living then therapy might be a good option for you.
How do I know if therapy is right for me?
Therapy is for everyone in some shape or form! It can be beneficial for anyone seeking support, personal development, or coping with life challenges. If you’re having difficulties in your life that are affecting you, and your loved ones, or even just functioning daily, therapy could be a helpful option.
How do I find a therapist?
Finding the right therapist is key to therapy. You can start by using online directories, asking for referrals from medical professionals like your family doctor or checking with your insurance for listed therapists. Make sure to find a therapist who practices healthy and ethical therapy with the proper credentials.
Is therapy confidential?
Therapy sessions are almost 100% confidential with very few exceptions for ethical and legal reasons. In your first session or initial consultation, your therapist will explain their confidentiality policy. They will only share information if there is a serious risk of harm to you or others.
What qualifications should I look for in a therapist?
Look for therapists with recognized credentials, such as a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) or Registered Social Worker (RSW). This ensures they have the necessary training and adhere to professional standards, providing reassurance about their qualifications and experience.
How long does therapy take?
Therapy duration varies depending on each client’s needs and goals. Some people find relief in 2 or 3 sessions while others may need longer-term therapy. You and your therapist will work together to determine the best fit.
What if I live in a small city or don’t have insurance?
Finding therapists can be difficult in small towns or without insurance. Consider expanding your search to online therapy or therapists in nearby big cities. Some therapists offer sliding scale fees based on your income which may be a fit for you and your needs. See our therapy costs page for more info.
What can I expect in my first therapy session?
In your first session, your therapist will likely ask you about your history, concerns and goals. It’s also a time for you to ask questions and discuss what you hope to get out of therapy.
How frequently will I need to attend therapy sessions?
The frequency of therapy sessions can definitely vary. Initially, weekly sessions are common but as you progress sessions may become less frequent. Depending on your needs and goals, your therapist will work with you to determine the best schedule.
How can therapy help with specific issues like anxiety or depression?
Therapy can give you coping strategies, tools and insights to manage and reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and other mental health issues. Therapists use evidence-based techniques to address these challenges and promote emotional well-being.
Does therapy have to be in person?
Nope! Therapy can be done over the phone, video call or in person. This is completely up to the client’s preference. Steyaert Counselling currently offers in-person therapy in East London, Ontario and Central Burlington, Ontario as well as phone and video calls across Ontario.
Are there resources for individuals experiencing sexual assault?
Yes, there are many resources for survivors of sexual assault. Therapists can support you and connect you with specialized services to help you through this.
