What is the process for starting therapy at TLC?
- Contact TLC via email and/or phone to express your interest in therapy with us.
- You will be contacted within 48 hours.
*Please note, therapists are in session. The turnaround time may be longer depending on when you reach out for services. - You will receive 2 forms (insurance and intake application) to complete via email in a secure portal. *Please complete both forms to avoid a processing delay or not getting scheduled with a therapist.
- Once the forms are returned to TLC, we will reach out to your insurance provider to verify your co-pay, if applicable.*Please note, insurance companies are low staffed and are taking longer to verify insurance co-pays. TLC cannot control this process, if you are using insurance, we ask that you be patient!
- Soon as your insurance and co-pay has been verified, you will be notified via email and matched with one of our therapists to set up your first session!

What should I look for in a therapist? How will I know if it’s a ‘good fit’?
- Credentials: Credentials don’t automatically mean that someone is a great therapist, but it lets you know the therapist has at least met certain minimum standards to be a therapist.
- Experience: Experience makes a tremendous difference, particularly those trained in specific mental health areas. There is no need to avoid newer therapists, they regularly consult with more experienced colleagues. It’s okay to ask questions about their background.
- Therapeutic Relationship: A therapist should feel like a potential partner on your journey towards growth; someone that you can connect with. They should impart some sense of hope and you certainly should not walk away feeling looked down on, told off, judged, mocked or criticized.
- Therapists’ Theoretical Orientation: You certainly don’t need to know about your therapist’s theoretical orientation to enjoy its benefits, but some people do resonate more with one approach than another.
It is suggested to go to therapy at least 2–3 times before deciding to leave or stay with a therapist. It's totally okay to therapists shop.
