-
How many session will I need?The number of sessions required for a person to address their concerns or reach their goals can vary quite dramatically. At Foundation Psychological Health, psychotherapy with Dr. Palmer typically ranges from approximately 8 to 16 sessions. Many concerns can be effectively addressed within this timeframe. However, it's important to note that some concerns may be resolved more quickly, while others may require a longer treatment duration. His approach is tailored to each individual's unique needs, and the goal is to work together to achieve positive outcomes in the most efficient and effective way possible.
-
Is psychotherapy effective for mental health concerns?Yes, in research, psychotherapy has been found to be effective for a wide variety of concerns, and the majority of people who engage in psychotherapy experience improvement in their symptoms. This does not mean that all of your symptoms will be gone after participating in therapy, but it does mean that more likely than not, you will experience positive changes. At Foundation Psychological Health, Dr. Palmer is dedicated to providing evidence-based psychotherapy services tailored to your unique needs, with the goal of helping you achieve improvements in your mental health and overall well-being. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or other concerns, he is here to support you on your journey towards healing and personal growth.
-
Where and how can we have sessions?I offer in-person sessions in a comfortable at home office. I also offer at home visits in the comfort of your own home or telepsychology via virtual sessions. Your therapy sessions will be most effective in an environment that offers comfort, security and trust for you.
-
How often will I need sessions?This depends on the particular type of treatment and on your needs. In general, though, you might expect to have sessions once per week or once every other week. Clients typically benefit the most from engaging in consistent therapy at a cadence and schedule that fits into their current life schedule. The goal of Foundation Psychological Health is to provide personalized care and support, so the frequency of your therapy sessions will be determined based on your individual needs and progress. Dr. Palmer will work with you to create a treatment plan that best suits your specific situation.

I'm interested in meeting. What do I do next?That's great to hear! The first step would be to schedule a 15-minute phone/virtual consultation (which is free!). During this time, we'll briefly chat and ensure that potentially working together would make sense. If we both decide to move forward after the consultation, then we will schedule an "intake" appointment (i.e., an initial evaluation). At Foundation Psychological Health, we believe in building a strong foundation for therapy by understanding your unique needs and goals from the start. This initial consultation allows us to get to know each other and help Dr. Palmer understand your concerns and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
-
Do you accept insurance?Currently, Foundation Psychological Health is not a provider for any insurance networks, which means we are unable to bill your insurance directly. However, if you have a Health Savings Account (HSA) plan, you can use those funds to pay for your psychotherapy services with us. We understand the importance of accessibility to mental health services and strive to provide flexible payment options for our clients. If you have any questions or concerns about payment, please feel free to contact us and we will be happy to assist you.

How much will therapy cost?At Foundation Psychological Health, we understand the importance of accessible and affordable mental health services.

We believe that everyone deserves access to mental health care, and we strive to work with our clients to ensure they can receive the support they need without financial barriers.
