Before you reach out

A few things people usually wonder.

Will she actually understand what I'm going through?

This practice exists specifically because that question matters. Dr. Lewis built Shades of Insight Therapy around culturally responsive care for women of color — you shouldn't have to explain the basics before getting to the real work.

What actually happens during the free consultation?

It's a short, low-pressure call — about 15 minutes. You'll talk about what's bringing you to therapy, ask any questions, and get a feel for whether it's a good fit before committing to anything. No paperwork, no pressure.

What if I don't have insurance, or mine isn't accepted?

Self-pay and out-of-network reimbursement are both available — see the Rates & Insurance page for details, or just ask during your consultation and we'll walk through the options together.

Is it normal to feel nervous about starting therapy?

Completely. Most people feel some version of that, especially the first time. Reaching out is usually the hardest part — you've already done that just by being here.

What if we talk and it turns out we're not the right fit?

That's a completely fair outcome, and the consultation exists to figure that out honestly. Fit matters as much as credentials — if it's not right, we'll say so and point you toward other options if we can.
