How much does a therapist cost in NYC?
It depends on the therapist’s experience and specialization. At Expansive Therapy, out-of-pocket rates typically range from $75 to $250 per session, 35% below industry standards. You can check each therapist’s bio for specific pricing.
What is the best rated online therapy?
“Best” depends on what you’re looking for. At Expansive Therapy, we specialize in LGBTQIA+ affirming care and are proud to maintain a 4.6-star rating on Google. We’re a great choice if identity-sensitive, relational therapy matters to you.
What should I expect during my first online session?
Your first session is a chance to talk about what’s bringing you in, ask questions, and set goals. It’s casual, warm, and collaborative. There's no pressure to “have it all figured out.” You’ll just start where you are.
Is online therapy just as effective?
Yes, for many people, it absolutely is. According to the APA, over 75% of people find online therapy to be as effective as in-person care. It depends on your personal preferences and goals.
Is it safe to do online therapy?
Definitely. Our therapists use HIPAA-compliant platforms to ensure your sessions are private and secure. You can attend from the comfort of your own space, with the same confidentiality as an in-person session.
