Frequently Asked Questions

Holistic Presence 

At Still Point Therapy, we embrace the ‘still point’ within the turning world, fostering a therapeutic environment where individuals can find a sense of calm and balance amidst life’s fluctuations. We honor the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. 

Authenticity and Responsibility 

We value authenticity and candor, striving to be genuine in every interaction. We believe in being honest about who we are and sharing our true thoughts and feelings, even when it’s uncomfortable. Taking responsibility is key to personal growth. By acknowledging our actions, emotions, and the impact we have on others, we create space for healing and transformation. 

Timeless Healing and Inner Freedom 

Inspired by the idea that “only through time, time is conquered,” we guide individuals on a journey through their past, present, and future, helping them to heal from within and embrace the fullness of their experiences. Upholding the value of ‘inner freedom from the practical desire,’ we empower individuals to release themselves from internal and external compulsions and cultivate genuine autonomy. 

Resilience and Movement 

We recognize that true healing involves both stillness and motion. Our approach integrates mindful awareness with proactive steps toward personal growth, ensuring a dynamic and evolving therapeutic process.   

Depth and Joy 

We understand that deep, meaningful work is essential, but we also embrace the importance of humor and lightness. We value the full spectrum of human experience, from profound insights to moments of levity, finding a balance between seriousness and playfulness. 

Conscious and Connected Awareness 

Understanding that ‘to be conscious is not to be in time,’ we encourage individuals to cultivate present-moment awareness. We help individuals achieve greater clarity and insight into their lives through mindfulness and reflective practices. We also believe in the power of interdependence, recognizing that our actions affect those around us and are influenced by the systems we are embedded in, creating positive ripple effects that benefit everyone involved.

At Still Point Therapy, our standard session lasts around 50-55 minutes, often called a “therapeutic hour.” This timing allows for meaningful progress, while also giving your therapist a few minutes between sessions to wrap up notes, gather their thoughts, and take a brief pause. We’re people, too, and sometimes we need a moment to catch our breath!

If your therapist feels that more time would be beneficial, they might recommend extending a session to about 80-85 minutes. However, we generally don’t go shorter than 45-55 minutes because it’s important to have enough time to really delve into the work.

At Still Point, we do not directly accept insurance. However, we’ve partnered with Mentaya, a service that streamlines getting reimbursed for your therapy sessions by utilizing your out-of-network benefits.
