At Catalyst Counseling, we offer a wide range of services, including:
You can easily schedule an appointment by clicking on the “Schedule Now” button on our homepage or by contacting us directly at 571-596-7864 or admin@catacounseling.com. We offer both telehealth sessions in Virginia and Maryland for your convenience.
Yes, teletherapy is highly effective for many people. Research shows that virtual therapy can be just as successful as in-person therapy for treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health concerns. It offers the added benefits of convenience, flexibility, and comfort allowing you to connect from home or wherever you feel safe. At Catalyst Counseling, our licensed therapists are trained to create meaningful connections and deliver high-quality care through secure telehealth platforms.
Yes, we accept most major insurance plans, including CareFirst, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, and Cigna. We also accept self-pay clients. Please contact us for more details or to verify your insurance benefits.
Your first session will primarily focus on getting to know each other. Your therapist will ask about your background, current struggles, and goals for therapy. This helps create a treatment plan tailored to your needs. We also discuss confidentiality, session structure, and what you can expect moving forward.
The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual’s goals, needs, and progress. Some individuals may see improvements in just a few sessions, while others may benefit from ongoing support. Your therapist will work with you to set goals and determine the frequency and length of treatment.
Yes, therapy is strictly confidential. Your therapist is bound by professional ethics and legal requirements to protect your privacy. There are only a few exceptions where confidentiality might be broken, such as if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others. These situations will be discussed with you openly.
Yes, absolutely. It’s important that you feel comfortable and supported in therapy. If at any point you feel that your therapist is not a good fit, we will work with you to find a different therapist who better aligns with your needs.
Therapy is a helpful tool for individuals who want to better understand their emotions, improve their mental health, and address challenges in their lives. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or any emotional struggles, therapy can provide you with the tools and support to move forward.
There’s no need to prepare anything specific for your first session, other than to come with an open mind and willingness to share. It may be helpful to think about your current struggles, what brought you to therapy, and any goals you’d like to work toward.
Yes, we offer therapy for children and adolescents. Our therapists specialize in helping young individuals manage anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, trauma, and family dynamics. We also work with parents to support their children’s mental health needs.
Our pricing depends on the type of service and whether you’re using insurance or self-pay. We are happy to provide more detailed pricing information upon request. Please contact us to discuss our rates and insurance options.
Yes, you can request a specific therapist when scheduling your appointment. We will do our best to accommodate your request based on availability.
If you didn’t find the answer you were looking for, feel free to contact us directly at 571-596-7864 or admin@catacounseling.com. We’re happy to assist!
