Affordable Counseling FAQs

How often should I go to therapy for mental health?

The frequency of therapy sessions varies greatly depending on individual needs and the specific challenges being addressed. For many clients, weekly sessions are beneficial, especially at the beginning of the therapeutic journey. This consistency helps to build rapport with new therapists, develop coping strategies, and maintain momentum.

As progress is made, some clients may shift to bi-weekly or even monthly sessions. Our therapists will work collaboratively with you to determine the best schedule based on your unique situation and goals. Remember, it’s always about what will provide you with the most effective support, counseling and guidance.

Can someone go to therapy too often?

It’s a thoughtful question. At Push Thru Therapy, we believe that the frequency of therapy sessions should be based on individual needs. For some, especially during times of crisis or significant transition, more frequent sessions can be beneficial. However, it’s essential that the frequency fosters self-growth and independence rather than creating a dependency on therapy.

A good therapist will work with the client to determine an appropriate session frequency and will make adjustments as the client progresses and their needs evolve. If you ever feel uncertain about how often you’re attending therapy, it’s a great topic to discuss directly with your therapist. Remember, the goal is to equip you with the tools and strategies to handle life’s challenges effectively, both within and outside the therapy room.

What are some of the best low-cost therapy options available in Atlanta?

At Push Thru Therapy, we’re committed to making mental health services accessible for all. Besides our own sliding scale fees and affordable sessions, Atlanta is home to several other notable low-fee counseling services:

Push Thru Therapy: We provide a range of therapeutic services based on a sliding fee scale tailored to income and family size, ensuring everyone can access the help they need.
Emory University Psychological Center: They offer outpatient services, often facilitated by graduate students under supervision. It’s a great way to access quality services at a reduced rate.
Piedmont Hospital: Known for its community outreach, Piedmont offers certain therapeutic services on a sliding fee scale based on income.
Mercer University Training Clinic: A therapy training center providing low cost counseling.
Heartwork Counseling Center: This center also offers affordable outpatient therapy services to Atlanta residents.
Local Community Clinics: Many community clinics in Atlanta provide mental health services on a sliding scale fee or at reduced costs. It’s always a good idea to check in with your local community health center for more details on their services or a nonprofit community counseling center.
Online Therapy Platforms: With the rise of teletherapy, many online platforms are offering affordable therapy sessions with licensed professionals. While not Atlanta-specific, they provide an alternative for those seeking cost-effective therapy.
Group Therapy: Many centers offer group therapy sessions, which can be more affordable than individual therapy while still providing valuable support and insights.

Remember, the goal is to find the right to the right fit for your needs and budget. Always reach out directly to the service provider to discuss costs and see if they offer any financial assistance, lower cost psychological testing or payment plans. Your mental well-being is invaluable, and there are numerous metropolitan counseling services available in Atlanta to support you.

Are there any government-funded programs for free therapy in Atlanta?

Yes, there are government-funded programs in Atlanta that provide free or low-cost therapy to residents. These programs are designed to ensure that all individuals, regardless of their financial situation, have access to mental health support.

While we at Push Thru Therapy offer affordable therapy options, we understand the importance of having multiple resources available. If you’re specifically looking for government-funded programs, we recommend reaching out to the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD) or checking with local community health centers for more information on available outpatient counseling services there. Keep an eye out for another psychology training center or psychiatry training program that may have reduced costs for neuropsychological assessment services

Always remember, your mental well-being is a priority, and there are resources in Atlanta dedicated to supporting you.

How do I know if the therapist I find is qualified and experienced enough to provide quality care, even if they offer their services at a reduced rate?

Great question! At Push Thru Therapy, we understand the concerns you and your family members may have about the qualifications, training and expertise of therapists, especially when services are provided at an affordable rate. Here’s how you can ensure you’re receiving quality care:

Licensing: First and foremost, check if the therapist is licensed in the state of Georgia. Licensure ensures that they’ve met strict educational, training, and examination requirements set by the state’s licensing board.
Education: Verify their educational background. Qualified therapists typically hold or are pursuing a master’s or doctoral degree in psychology, counseling, or a related field.
Specializations: Determine if the therapist has specialized training or certifications in the areas of therapy you’re seeking. Specializations can be an indication of advanced training and expertise in certain therapeutic approaches.
Experience: Don’t hesitate to ask the therapist about their experience, including how many years they’ve been practicing and any specific experience they have with issues similar to yours.
Supervision for Graduate Students: At Push Thru Therapy, we collaborate with graduate students. While they might offer services at a reduced rate, they always work under the close supervision of our seasoned, licensed professionals, ensuring quality care.
Reviews and Recommendations: While not always definitive, feedback from previous clients or recommendations from trusted sources can give you insight into a therapist’s competence and effectiveness.
Open Dialogue: Always feel free to discuss any reservations or questions you have directly with the therapist. A good therapist will welcome your inquiries and provide clear answers.

Remember, at Push Thru Therapy, our commitment is to offer affordable therapy without compromising on quality. We ensure that all our therapists, regardless of the rates they charge, meet our high standards of expertise and professionalism. Your well-being is our top priority.
