Tanza Haskins Counseling Services

Your first session will be different from your subsequent sessions. This session will be primarily used to gather information about yourself and your circumstances that prompted you to start therapy. You will begin to build a therapeutic alliance which is key to effective psychotherapy. You will set goals for therapy to create an effective treatment plan.
45 - 60 minutes dependent on your health insurance plan.
Initially, it is recommended that clients meet on a weekly basis. However, dependent on your needs, you may meet with your Therapist more or less frequently.
Telehealth allows you to participate in therapy sessions, remotely, using a mobile device, laptop, or tablet. The management software that is used for telehealth services is SimplePractice which is secure and HIPAA compliant. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken all necessary precautions to protect the health of our clients by offering telehealth sessions.
