It's Not Just “The News”
Global instability hits home. Process the dread with a grounded perspective.
You closed the news app three times today and opened it four. The world being on fire isn't a metaphor anymore, and pretending it doesn't reach you isn't working. The dread is real. The cost on your sleep, your focus, and your sense of agency is real. Therapy that doesn't dismiss it.
What therapy here looks like.
- Anxiety, sleep disruption, and the specific exhaustion of crisis-cycle living
- ACT and mindfulness-based approaches to find footing without disengaging
- News hygiene that doesn't ask you to look away from what matters

Things people ask before booking.
How long does therapy take to work?
The length of therapy varies for each person. Some see improvements in a few sessions, while others may need longer. It's a personalized process, and progress depends on various factors like the nature of the issues and your commitment.
How do I know if a therapist is right for me?
A good fit is crucial in therapy. Look for a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and understood. It's okay to change therapists if the first one doesn't feel right.
Is everything I say in therapy confidential?
Yes, with few exceptions (such as risk of harm to self or others), what you discuss in therapy stays confidential between you and your therapist.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes — some of our providers do accept insurance, and many clients use out-of-network benefits to get reimbursed for care. Our team verifies your exact benefits and copay for you before your first session, at no cost. See Insurance & Rates for which providers accept which plans.
