Sessions are 55 minutes in length. Most clients are seen at least once a week in the beginning and then, as time goes on, less frequently. The number of sessions depends on what your current needs are. It is important that the you feel comfortable with your therapist, which may take a few sessions to determine.

No. At Balanced Life Counseling, we do not prescribe medication. Typically, clients see a psychiatrist or physician in network with their health insurance or we can refer you to someone if you feel medication is needed.
