What makes your clinical approach different from traditional talk therapy?

We do not do passive listening, referee arguments, or assign generic communication worksheets. We provide high-efficacy experiential intervention utilizing Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to perform the emotional surgery necessary to resolve chronic pursuer-withdrawer cycles and rebuild secure attachment in real time.

Why does Break Free Therapy operate as an out-of-network private-pay practice?

By operating out-of-network, we protect your absolute confidentiality and eliminate insurance-mandated mental health diagnoses from your permanent medical records. We provide itemized monthly superbills with full procedure and diagnostic coding for potential out-of-network insurance reimbursement, and accept all major credit, debit, HSA, and FSA cards.

How do your extended 120-minute intensives compare to weekly sessions?

Standard 50-minute sessions often spend 15 minutes checking in and 10 minutes wrapping up, leaving limited time for deep relational restructuring. Our 120-minute intensives eliminate weekly surface warm-up, providing the extended clinical runway needed for rapid de-escalation, crisis stabilization, and substantial breakthroughs in fewer total appointments.

Can couples counseling help if one partner is considering separation or divorce?

Yes. We provide structured Discernment Counseling for mixed-agenda couples where one partner is leaning out of the marriage and the other wants to reconcile. This short-term protocol provides clarity and confidence on the future path without the pressure of forced decisions.

How do I book a consultation or initial intake appointment?
