How do I know if therapy is right for me?

You do not need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Many people come to therapy for support with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, grief, trauma, burnout, or simply wanting a better understanding of themselves.

How do I get started?

The first step is scheduling a consultation. During this conversation, we'll discuss what brings you to therapy, answer questions, and determine the best next steps.

What can I expect during my first appointment?

Your first session focuses on getting to know you. We'll discuss your concerns, goals, personal history, and what you hope to gain from therapy. This helps us create a collaborative plan moving forward.

Do I have to know exactly what I want to work on?

Not at all. Many clients begin therapy knowing they are struggling but unsure why. Part of the process is helping you gain clarity and identify meaningful goals.

What states do you serve?

Services are available based on the therapist's licensure and state regulations. Please get in touch with us to determine whether services are available in your state. Currently, Hadiya is licensed to provide therapy in GA, FL, and SC, and Aaliya is licensed exclusively in GA. Coaching can be performed wherever you are located.

What services do you offer?

HYNT offers individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, neurodivergent coaching, and consultations.

Do you work with children and teens?

We work with folx 16+. Services are tailored to developmental needs and goals.

What is neurodivergent coaching?

Neurodivergent coaching provides practical support for executive functioning, emotional regulation, routines, communication, self-advocacy, and navigating daily life. Coaching differs from therapy and focuses more heavily on skill-building and implementation.

What is the difference between coaching and therapy?

Therapy focuses on mental health concerns, emotional healing, and clinical treatment. Coaching focuses on goal-setting, accountability, strategy development, and practical life skills. During your consultation, we can help determine which service may best meet your needs.

Are sessions in person or online?

HYNT currently provides services exclusively through secure telehealth platforms, allowing clients to attend sessions from the comfort of their own space.

How long are sessions?

Most therapy sessions are approximately 45, 53-60 minutes. Longer sessions may be available when clinically appropriate.

How often will I attend therapy?

Frequency depends on your needs, goals, and availability. Most clients begin with weekly sessions and adjust as progress is made.

How long will I be in therapy?

There is no one-size-fits-all answer. Some clients attend therapy for a few months to address a specific concern, while others engage in longer-term work focused on deeper patterns and growth.

Will you tell me what to do?

Therapy is collaborative. We may provide education, feedback, and recommendations, but our role is not to make decisions for you. Instead, we help you explore options and make choices that align with your values and goals.

What if I become emotional during a session?

That's completely okay. Therapy is one of the few places where you do not have to hold everything together. Emotions are welcome here.

Is everything I share confidential?

In most situations, yes. There are specific legal and ethical exceptions related to safety concerns, abuse, neglect, or court orders. These limits will be reviewed during the informed consent process.

Do you accept insurance?

HYNT accepts select insurance plans. Coverage varies by therapist and state. We recommend verifying your benefits before your first appointment.

What if you do not accept my insurance?

Private pay options may be available.

When is payment due?

Payment is due at the time services are rendered unless otherwise discussed.
