Therapy is a personal journey, and people seek it for many different reasons. Some come to work through long-standing challenges such as anxiety, depression, or trauma, while others seek support during major life transitions like a career change, divorce, or loss of a loved one. Therapy can also be a space for self-discovery, personal growth, or improving relationships.

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply curious about what therapy can offer, it may be worth exploring. At Wholesome Psychology, we provide a safe and supportive space to help you navigate life’s challenges and create meaningful change.

Yes. Confidentiality is a cornerstone of therapy, and we follow strict ethical guidelines to protect your privacy. There are, however, a few legal and ethical exceptions—such as risk of harm to yourself or others—which we will discuss in detail during your first session.

Each session is 50 minutes long. The last few minutes are reserved for note-taking and reflection to ensure we continue making meaningful progress in future sessions.

Therapy is unique to each person. While some individuals experience positive change within 4-6 sessions, others may benefit from longer-term support. Short-term therapy (6-18 sessions) is often enough for focused concerns, while more complex or long-standing issues may require ongoing sessions. We will work together to determine what’s best for you.
