At Healthwell Psychological Services, therapy is based on scientifically supported methods that have been proven effective through research. Dr. Bauer carefully selects therapeutic approaches that align with your unique needs, equipping you with practical skills to manage distress and enhance your overall well-being.
Therapy is designed to be short-term, with sessions initially scheduled on a regular basis (such as weekly or biweekly). Over time, as progress is made, sessions may become less frequent or transition to an as-needed format.
Currently, all services are provided via secure video sessions. Research has shown that teletherapy is just as effective as in-person therapy while also reducing the burden of travel. This can be especially beneficial for individuals managing health conditions or other significant life stressors.
