Richmond Therapists Accepting Insurance
We understand that affordability is an important factor when choosing therapy.
That’s why all of our Richmond therapists accept insurance.
By working with insurance providers, we aim to make quality mental health care more accessible to the Richmond community. Our staff can verify your benefits and help you understand your coverage before you begin sessions.
How Long Are Therapist Sessions?
Most therapy sessions last about 45 to 60 minutes, though the exact length can vary depending on your needs and the type of therapy you’re receiving. This timeframe gives you and your therapist enough space to explore concerns, develop strategies, and set goals without feeling rushed.
Some specialized sessions, such as trauma-focused therapies or couples counseling, may run closer to 75–90 minutes to allow for deeper work or to involve multiple participants. If you’re working with a psychiatric provider for medication management, appointments are often shorter (typically 20–30 minutes) after the initial evaluation.
Your therapist will discuss what schedule and session length makes the most sense for you, whether that means weekly, biweekly, or a customized plan. The goal is to create a consistent, supportive environment where you feel comfortable making progress at your own pace.
