Your first session is a chance to meet your therapist, discuss your concerns, and explore your goals. If your therapist isn’t the right fit, we’ll help you find another ReSpark Group therapist who better aligns with your needs.

Therapy is unique for everyone. Some clients see progress in weeks, while others continue for months or years. Your journey may have highs and lows, and our therapists will support you through every step.

We carefully match you with a therapist based on your needs. You can also explore our therapist bios and watch introduction videos to find someone who feels like the right fit. Still unsure? Take our therapist-matching quiz!

Therapy helps couples improve communication, emotional connection, and intimacy. Our therapists provide evidence-based strategies tailored to your unique relationship challenges.

Sex therapy addresses intimacy, desire, sexual function, and relationship dynamics. At ReSpark Group, we specialize in:

• LGBTQ+ concerns
• Open & polyamorous relationships
• Kink and alternative lifestyles
• Sexual desire & compatibility
• Trans awareness & gender-affirming support

Sex therapy is a judgment-free space to explore intimacy and connection.

Yes! ReSpark Group therapists receive over 200+ hours of specialized sex therapy training through the Sexual Health Alliance (SHA)—one of the most comprehensive training programs worldwide. Many of our therapists also hold certifications in:

• Kink-Informed Therapy
• Problematic Sexual Behavior ("Sex Addiction")
• Open & Polyamory-Informed Therapy

All ReSpark Group therapists are licensed or working toward certification under AASECT or SHA.

Therapy rates vary by experience level:

• Graduate students / Master’s level clinicians: $85/hr
• Post-graduate interns/candidates: $125-$150/hr
• Fully licensed clinicians: $175-$250/hr

• Phone therapy: Your therapist will call your preferred number at your session time.
• Video therapy: Your therapist will send a secure link before your session starts.

For privacy, we recommend:
✅ Finding a quiet, private space
✅ Using white noise or a fan outside the door if others are nearby
✅ Wearing headphones for added confidentiality

Research shows that telehealth sessions are an equally effective form of therapy. Our therapists are experienced with telehealth and would be happy to discuss their flexible schedules and how to ensure your comfort and privacy. We can adapt to any platform you prefer (FaceTime, Zoom, Skype, etc.), as well as phone sessions. FaceTime recently updated its standards to be HIPAA compliant. You can expect a secure and safe environment from your therapist’s end, and they will send you a link to your virtual meeting room based on the platform that feels most comfortable for you.

Through our online platform doxy.me, video sessions are HIPAA compliant, and we can adapt to any platform you prefer (FaceTime, Zoom, Skype, etc.), as well as phone sessions. FaceTime recently updated its standards to be HIPAA compliant. As mentioned above, we also recommend playing background noise (e.g., music, a fan, or a TV) if others are in your space.

We recommend approaching counseling with an open mind while understanding that therapy is deep, vulnerable work that requires action on your part as a client, along with the therapist’s guidance. Therapy isn’t a quick fix—it’s about deep understanding and working through issues, which takes time but is ultimately rewarding.

In couples therapy, therapists sometimes have individual sessions with each partner. However, they typically won’t have more than three individual sessions with each person. If you want to see an individual therapist while also in couples therapy, we can schedule you with another therapist at ReSpark Group. Per ethical guidelines, it’s not recommended for a client to see their individual therapist for couples therapy beyond a couple of sessions, or vice versa.

At the start of therapy, we recommend weekly sessions to build a strong therapeutic relationship, which is key to a constructive experience. Once that bond is established, you and your therapist can discuss meeting less often if that better fits your schedule.

• CST = Certified Sex Therapist. This means the therapist has completed the education and training required for certification in sex therapy.
• LPC = Licensed Professional Counselor. The therapist has finished all required supervised hours and is now fully licensed.
• LMFT = Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. The therapist has completed all required supervised hours and is now fully licensed.
• LCSW = Licensed Clinical Social Worker. The therapist has finished all required supervised hours and is now a fully licensed social worker.
• LPC-C / LMFT-C = Licensed Professional Counselor (or Marriage and Family Therapist) Candidate. In Colorado, this means the therapist is working toward licensure under supervision.
• LPC-A / LMFT-A = Licensed Professional Counselor (or Marriage and Family Therapist) Associate.
• LPC Intern / LMFT Intern = In Texas, this means the therapist is working toward licensure under supervision.
• Master’s Level Clinician = A therapist still in graduate school and working at ReSpark Group on a sliding scale fee.

At ReSpark Group, therapists practice unconditional positive regard, meaning they approach every client with compassion and care. If you have concerns about your therapeutic relationship, your therapist will welcome open communication to repair any issues. If needed, you can also reach out to our clinical manager to explore a better therapist match.

At ReSpark Group, we believe couples therapy is for all kinds of relationships. It can help partners work through challenges or strengthen an already stable relationship. We also work with throuples and alternative relationship structures.

Absolutely. We offer therapy for both individuals and couples. If you attend as a couple, your therapist will likely conduct a few individual sessions as well.

It’s completely okay if a conflict arises during therapy. Your therapist is trained to help you navigate the situation in a productive and constructive way.

You’ll schedule your next appointment. Typically, sessions are weekly or biweekly. Occasionally, your therapist may give you homework based on your session.

No, couples therapists aim to benefit the relationship as a whole. Their role is to support all partners involved, not to take sides.

We offer out-of-network benefits. If you prefer to use insurance, you must choose a post-graduate therapist with fees starting at $135/hr. Upon request, we can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement.

We do not bill insurance directly. Most insurance plans do not cover couples counseling unless it is treating a diagnosed condition. If you need a low-cost option, you can explore our non-profit, ReSpark Foundation, which offers sliding-scale therapy starting at $25/hr for qualified clients facing sexual harm, trauma, abuse/neglect, or relationship issues. Learn more at ReSparkFoundation.org.

Insurance requires therapists to diagnose clients within the first session, which we prefer to avoid, as diagnoses can sometimes be stigmatizing or inaccurate early on. Many clients choose to pay privately to bypass the medical diagnosis system.

Look for credentials like CST (Certified Sex Therapist), which indicates specialized training and certification in sex therapy.

If you feel your therapist isn’t the right fit, you can have an open conversation with them or reach out to our clinical manager for a reassessment. We understand that not every therapist is the right match for every client, and we’re happy to help you find the best fit. Contact our care team at care@respark.co or 512-537-0922.
