Question 3

Where can clients be located to see you for therapy?

Currently, therapy clients must be in Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Carolina,  Vermont, or Washington, since these are the states where I have a credential to offer therapy by telehealth. Learn more about my licenses and telehealth registrations.

Question 4

How frequently do healing groups meet, and how long are sessions?

Accepted Answer

I hold group sessions weekly for 90 minutes, with some scheduled breaks.

Question 5

Question 8

Are you taking new clients for life coaching?

Accepted Answer

I’m not currently taking new clients for life coaching.

Question 9

If I’m not sure I have childhood trauma, what can I do to figure this out?

Accepted Answer

If you resonate with descriptions of childhood trauma offered here and in other trustworthy sources, the best way to explore the question is with myself or another behavioral health professional. The self-assessment tool I offer can help you consider whether the question deserves further exploration.

Question 10

What happens to my intake form after I submit it?

Accepted Answer

The form is protected with HIPAA-compliant encryption, and I am the only person who will see it.

Question 11

Do people who participate in groups also attend individual sessions?

Accepted Answer

To receive the greatest benefit from participating in healing groups, I recommend that group participants also receive individual therapy to supplement what we do in group. The individual sessions could be with me or someone else. For clients who have regular individual sessions with a therapist other then me, meeting with me periodically to receive support in implementing tools learned in group can be helpful.

Question 12

Can people do only individual sessions?

Accepted Answer

The RRP model is most effective when clients have individual sessions and also participate in a group. However, clients can make significant progress working with me individually for a time, either because they are waiting for a group to be available or they feel uncomfortable with the idea of joining a group.

Question 13

Can I reach out to you for referrals if I don’t live in Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Carolina,  Vermont, or Washington?

Accepted Answer

While I am unable to offer referrals, people can check out @rrptherapists on Instagram for a listing that identifies RRP therapists and the locations where they see clients.

Question 14

Can I reach out to you for advice?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, I am not able to offer advice unless the person is my client.

Question 15

Can I reach out to you with questions about how therapy works?

Accepted Answer

I try to anticipate most such questions in the content I post on this website. I also offer a webinar about the therapy periodically, and people can purchase a video of that webinar ($10) on my resources page. You can also check out my Instagram @c.frechette.therapy. Unfortunately, I’m not able to respond directly to questions from prospective clients about how therapy works unless I begin a consultation process after receiving their intake forms.
