Clear answers before you book.

You meet a clinician briefly to share what is going on, ask questions, and learn whether we are a good fit. We also outline next steps for intake paperwork, insurance verification through Headway (when applicable), and scheduling a full session.

Start with a free consultation, or book directly with Peter or Francy from the About page. If you plan to use insurance, Headway typically verifies benefits during booking so you can see an estimated cost before your first session.

We primarily counsel adults. Care includes individual counseling, couples counseling, and Christian counseling, with both in-person and telehealth options for Massachusetts clients.

Availability changes week to week. The consultation is the fastest way to confirm openings, clinician fit, and whether in-person or telehealth works better for you right now.

Yes. We work with many major plans through Headway, which helps verify benefits and estimate your session cost before you start. Accepted plans can vary by clinician. See the full list and setup steps on our Insurance & Payment page.

When you book through Headway, you share your insurance details, Headway checks benefits, and you usually see an estimated cost before the first session. Headway also helps with billing and payment setup so paperwork stays clearer.

Yes. Private-pay sessions are available if you prefer not to use insurance or your plan is out of network. We can also discuss superbills for out-of-network reimbursement when applicable.

Private-pay sessions are $125 per session. If you have questions about fees, payment setup, or superbills, ask during your free consultation.

Whenever possible, yes—especially when booking through Headway. Your final cost still depends on your plan’s deductible, copay, or coinsurance. We encourage verifying benefits before your first appointment.

Yes. You can meet in person at our Marlborough office or connect securely online for statewide Massachusetts telehealth. Many clients mix both depending on the week.

For many concerns—anxiety, depression, grief, relational issues, and life transitions—research shows video therapy can be equally effective. The better fit is the format that helps you show up consistently.

Yes. We use secure platforms designed for healthcare. For the best session, use a private space, headphones if helpful, and a stable internet connection.

Sessions are typically about 45–50 minutes. Weekly or biweekly is common at the start; we adjust pacing as goals become clearer and progress settles in.

Care is collaborative and evidence-based. Clinicians commonly draw from CBT and related approaches, tailored to anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, burnout, relationship patterns, and life transitions—never a one-size-fits-all script.

No. Faith integration is optional and paced by you. Some clients want Scripture-informed language and spiritual formation; others prefer a primarily clinical frame. Both are welcome.

You do not need perfect certainty to begin. We can work respectfully with doubt, questions, spiritual complexity, and seasons where belief feels unsettled.

No. We work with clients from a range of Christian backgrounds and tailor the conversation to your beliefs, comfort level, and goals.

Yes. Counseling is confidential within the legal and ethical limits of Massachusetts practice. Your clinician will explain confidentiality, exceptions, and your rights during intake.

Life happens. Please give as much notice as you can so we can offer the time to someone else. Specific cancellation timing is covered in your intake paperwork.

Bring your questions, a sense of what you want help with, and any insurance details if you have not finished Headway setup. You do not need a perfect story—just an honest starting place.
