What can I expect in my first session?

The first session is focused on getting to know you—your background, current concerns, and what brought you to therapy. We’ll explore your goals, answer any questions, and begin building a foundation of trust. Think of it as a collaborative starting point, not a test or an interview.

How do I know if therapy is right for me?

If you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply curious about understanding yourself more deeply, therapy can be a supportive space to explore those feelings. You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit—therapy is about increasing insight, building tools, and creating meaningful change.

What are your fees and do you take insurance?

Life Threads offers a range of options for session rates that vary based on the level of therapist experience and the service you are seeking. We are an out-of-network provider, which means you pay us for services and then most PPO insurances with out-of-network benefits will reimburse a percentage of that fee to you. Depending on your insurance carrier and plan, coverage for out-of-network sessions may range from 50–70% of the cost. We can submit claims on your behalf, and your insurance company will send you reimbursement directly by mail. Call our office to speak with our Client Care Coordinator to learn more about session costs, superbills, and to find the best therapist match for you.

How often will we meet?

Most clients begin with weekly sessions to establish consistency and build momentum. Over time, we may adjust the frequency based on your needs, goals, and progress. This is something we decide together.

Are in-person sessions available?

Yes! We offer in-person therapy sessions at our office conveniently located in West Los Angeles: 2001 S Barrington Ave, Suite 215 Los Angeles, CA 90025 We strive to provide a comfortable, welcoming space for clients seeking face-to-face support. Virtual sessions are also available depending on your needs and preferences.

Can I do virtual sessions?

Yes. We offer secure, HIPAA-compliant virtual therapy to clients located anywhere in California. Online sessions offer flexibility and convenience while maintaining the same clinical depth as in-person care.

What’s your cancellation policy?

We kindly ask for at least 48 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your session. Cancellations made with less than 48 hours’ notice—or missed appointments without notice—will be charged the full session fee. We understand that life happens, and we appreciate your understanding as we hold this time specifically for you.
