Common questions
Is it really free — no strings attached?
Yes, completely. The consultation is 20 minutes, free of charge, and there is no obligation to book a session afterwards. It's simply a chance to connect and see if it feels right.
What do I need to say or do to prepare?
Nothing at all. You don't need to have the right words, a clear diagnosis, or a specific goal in mind. Just show up as you are — that's enough. We'll help guide the conversation from there.
I've never done therapy before. Is that okay?
Absolutely. Many of our clients come to Thrive having never spoken to a therapist before. The consultation is a gentle, low-pressure introduction — there's no experience required.
How does the consultation happen — phone or video?
We offer both phone and virtual consultations, whichever feels more comfortable for you. You'll be able to choose your preference when you book.
What if I'm not sure therapy is right for me?
That's exactly what the consultation is for. You don't need to be certain — just curious. Many people find that the conversation itself brings a lot of clarity about whether therapy feels like the right next step.
How do I know which therapist is right for me?
Finding the right fit is one of the most important parts of therapy — and that's exactly what the consultation is for. You'll have a chance to connect with a clinician directly, get a feel for their approach, and trust your instincts about whether it feels right. If either you or your clinician feels another member of our team might be a better fit, we'll make sure you're connected with someone who feels more aligned. You're never left to figure it out alone browse our team beforehand if you'd like.
