CBT

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

The gold standard for anxiety, depression, and OCD. We identify and restructure unhelpful thought and behavior patterns with practical, measurable tools.

ACT

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy

Build psychological flexibility, clarify your values, and take meaningful action — even in the presence of difficult thoughts and feelings.

DBT

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Evidence-based skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness — especially effective for BPD and self-harm.

Trauma

Trauma-Informed & EMDR-Adjacent

We use trauma-informed frameworks and somatic-integrated approaches to help clients process traumatic experiences safely and effectively.

ADHD

ADHD-Specific Therapy

Traditional therapy often doesn't work for the ADHD brain. We adapt structure, pacing, and technique for neurodivergent clients so sessions are actually productive.

MI

Motivational Interviewing

Explore ambivalence and build intrinsic motivation for change — particularly useful for substance use, health behaviors, and life transitions.

What We Treat

Our Specialty Areas

Our therapists have deep expertise in specific areas — so you're matched with someone who truly understands your experience.

😰

Anxiety & Panic

Generalized anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety, panic disorder, and phobias — using evidence-based CBT and exposure techniques that produce lasting results.

🌧️

Depression

Persistent sadness, anhedonia, low motivation, and hopelessness. We combine behavioral activation, cognitive restructuring, and meaning-making to lift the weight.

🧠

ADHD in Adults

Therapy for the emotional side of ADHD: shame, rejection sensitivity, relationship conflict, and the psychological impact of a lifetime of "not living up to your potential."

🎖️

PTSD & Trauma

Military trauma, childhood trauma, complex PTSD, and single-incident events. We use evidence-based trauma processing in a safe, paced environment.

🔄

Life Transitions

Job loss, divorce, grief, relocation, major health changes, and identity shifts. We help you navigate transition without losing yourself in the process.

💑

Relationship & Self-Esteem

Communication patterns, attachment issues, people-pleasing, and building genuine self-worth — not just positive self-talk, but lasting internal change.

Getting Started

How Therapy Works at Nova

From your first contact to meaningful progress — here's what the journey looks like.

1

Free 15-Min Consult

We listen to what's brought you here, describe our approach, verify insurance, and match you with the right therapist. Zero commitment.

2

Intake Session (Session 1)

Your first full session focuses on getting a complete picture of your history, current challenges, and goals. Together, you and your therapist co-create your treatment plan.

3

Ongoing Weekly Sessions

Typically 50 minutes per week via secure telehealth video. We track progress, adapt the approach, and keep sessions focused on what matters most to you right now.

4

Progress Reviews

Every 6–8 sessions, we review progress, reassess goals, and adjust the plan. You'll always know where you stand and where we're headed.

5

Graduation & Maintenance

Therapy has an end goal: you don't need us anymore. We plan for termination together and build the skills and confidence for long-term wellness on your own terms.

Questions

Therapy FAQs

How long will I need to be in therapy?
+

It depends on what you're working on. Many clients see meaningful improvement in 8–12 sessions. Others with more complex histories or goals benefit from longer-term work. We don't believe in keeping people in therapy longer than necessary — we're honest about what's needed and collaboratively decide the pace with you.

What if I don't connect with my therapist?
+

Therapeutic fit is critically important. If after your first 2–3 sessions you feel your therapist isn't the right match, we'll work to rematch you with someone on our team at no additional charge. We take fit seriously because the research is clear: it's one of the strongest predictors of outcome.

Do you prescribe medication?
+

No — our therapists and psychologists do not prescribe medication. Psychologists are doctoral-level licensed clinicians, but prescribing is a separate scope in most states. We coordinate care with your prescribing physician or psychiatrist and can provide documentation to support medication decisions. We'll refer you to a prescriber if needed.

Is telehealth therapy as effective as in-person?
+

Yes — the research is strong and consistent. Multiple meta-analyses have found telehealth therapy to be equally effective as in-person therapy for anxiety, depression, PTSD, and ADHD. Many clients actually prefer telehealth for the convenience, comfort of their home environment, and reduced barrier to showing up consistently.
