Frequently Asked Questions

Choose a therapist who understands your unique story, decide on a rate that fits your lifestyle, and begin a journey towards personal growth.

How long are the sessions?

All sessions are 50-minutes.

How long can I use Alli?

You can see an Alli therapist for as long as you need support.

Once you’ve reached your therapy goals, discuss the next steps with your therapist. This might involve adjusting visit frequency or pausing therapy until you need support again.

Where do the sessions take place?

Sessions occur over secure HIPPA-compliant video - Zoom Health. They are 100% confidential and privacy protected.

Are my sessions covered by my insurance?

If you have extended coverage for Psychotherapy and Registered Social Workers, your sessions will be covered!

What happens after my five complimentary sessions with Virani Law?

After your initial five therapy sessions, you can continue your therapy journey with the same therapist.

You’ll be prompted to select a rate you wish to pay.

For intern therapists, the rate ranges from $45 to $105 per session, and for associate therapists, the rate ranges from $115 to $175 per session.

Future sessions can also be covered by your insurance, ensuring you have ongoing support.

If I choose a low price point, will my therapy be "less-than"?

Absolutely not - all sessions are of equal quality!

We offer varied price points to ensure everyone can access therapy. Your chosen price remains anonymous and doesn't affect the service quality.

Will my therapist be disappointed if I pay a lower rate?

Not at all - our therapists are here to support you, no matter the rate you choose. At Alli, we believe in a cycle of giving and receiving.

If you pay a higher rate, you're supporting someone else who needs a reduced rate. When circumstances change, you can adjust accordingly.

Everyone is valued equally in our community.

Why should I choose a higher rate if I can afford it?

By choosing to pay a therapist's standard rate, you're directly empowering another individual on their therapy journey. We recognize that financial circumstances vary, but at Alli, we believe in collective support.

Your contribution ensures that someone else can access the care they need. We're all in this together, and every contribution makes a difference.

Can I change my rate?

Absolutely! Whether you've celebrated a promotion or faced a job loss, you can easily adjust your rate to align with your current financial situation.

Our primary goal is to ensure you can continue your therapy journey without any interruptions. Your well-being is our top priority!

What happens if I didn't connect with the therapist I picked?

It's entirely natural and happens more often than you'd think.

Finding the right therapist is similar to finding a life partner; sometimes there's an immediate bond, and at other times, it may require meeting a few individuals to discover the perfect match. Please don't feel discouraged or be concerned about offending your therapist.

In the therapeutic environment, open and direct communication is valued. By voicing your needs and preferences, you're ensuring that you receive the best possible care. Discuss your feelings with your current therapist, and they will assist in pairing you with another professional who might be a better fit for your needs.

Always remember, everyone at Alli is dedicated to ensuring you receive the support you deserve!
