How do I chose a therapist?
How do I chose a therapist?
The connection and the relationship with your therapist is one of the most important factors in the process of counseling and psychotherapy, including the therapy outcomes and success. While not always a choice, we recommend utilizing the free consultation when offered, speaking with more than one provider if feasible, rely on referrals from your network of trusted people who can recommend someone with whom they might have worked, and most of all, to always bring up any concerns or questions you may have about how the given therapist or counselor works. At Serendipity, we always offer a 20-min free consultation for our psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, and coaching and mentoring services.
Here are a three different articles from Psychology Today further addressing this issue form three different perspectives. Enjoy and if you have any additional questions for us, do not hesitate to contact us.

How does telehealth work at Serendipity?
How does telehealth work at Serendipity?
At this time, like many other health / mental health providers, we offer telehealth services only using HIPAA-compliant platforms in order to maintain the highest available level of security for your telehealth sessions. Telehealth services may not be the right option for everyone and there are potential risks to using such technology, including interruptions, unauthorized access, and technical difficulties.
To this end, it is very important that you have a private space where you can participate in your sessions without interruptions and without others overhearing your session - this is true of psychotherapy, but even more so for hypnotherapy sessions. By engaging to work with us - as further elaborated in our Consent to Treatment documents - we will ask that you agree to telehealth services only; that you agree to attend sessions from a private, quiet location; and that you understand that either your provider or you may choose to discontinue to work together if it is determined that the telehealth format is not adequate for your situation and/or for your needs. Appropriate referrals to other providers will always be offered and continuity of care will be maintained as necessary.
NOTE:
All psychotherapy / counseling clients must have permanent residence in WA State.
Hypnotherapy services are offered in WA State and where permitted by state / local laws and regulations.
Professional Coaching and Mentoring, and online Workshops and Events are offered globally where accessible.
