Yes, all payment information is processed through secure payment systems that meet banking industry security standards. Your credit card information is encrypted and stored by our payment processor.

No, your employer cannot see that you're using Grouport unless you tell them. Even if you're using employer-provided insurance for reimbursement, HIPAA laws prevent insurers from sharing details about your mental health care with your employer. Your employer might see that you filed an insurance claim for "mental health services," but they won't see provider details, session notes, or any information about your care. If you're paying out-of-pocket or using an HSA/FSA, there's no connection to your employer at all beyond the general use of benefits.

When you submit for insurance reimbursement, we provide a superbill that includes: your name, therapist's name and credentials, dates of services rendered, cost paid per session, and any other relevant information needed for reimbursement.

That would be scheduled as a one off couples or family therapy session that would be billed for separately. Occasional couples or family therapy sessions can be valuable to support your individual work. Common reasons include, helping your partner understand your mental health condition, practicing communication skills with therapist support, addressing a specific relationship or family issue, your partner asking questions about how to support you, or transitioning to or adding couples or family therapy.

Trust is essential for effective therapy. If you don't trust your therapist, first ask yourself, Is this general difficulty trusting (a pattern in many relationships)? Or specific concerns about this person? Have you discussed your mistrust with them? Sometimes exploring trust issues with your therapist is therapeutic work, and many people have trust difficulties, and therapy is a safe place to address this. However, if specific behaviors make you uncomfortable (boundary violations, judgmental attitudes, broken confidentiality), trust your instincts and switch therapists immediately. Some trust builds gradually over several sessions; if you feel like trust is lacking or uncomfortable after 4-5 sessions, finding a better fit is appropriate and we can help you switch therapists.

Yes, therapy effectively addresses motivation and procrastination by exploring underlying causes such as perfectionism making starting to feel overwhelming, fear of failure or success, ADHD affecting executive function, depression depleting energy and interest, anxiety causing avoidance, unclear values and goals, learned helplessness, or simple lack of skills in planning and time management. Your therapist helps you understand your specific barriers to motivation, develop realistic goals and break them into manageable steps, address thinking patterns that maintain procrastination, build accountability, create structures supporting follow-through, and develop self-compassion (harsh self-criticism worsens motivation). CBT and behavioral activation are evidence-based approaches for motivation concerns.

Different therapy approaches suit different needs: CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) focuses on changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, effective for anxiety, depression, OCD. DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) teaches specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness, developed initially for BPD but useful for anyone with intense emotions. Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns affect current life. EMDR specifically treats trauma through bilateral stimulation. ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) focuses on accepting difficult thoughts rather than changing them and aligning actions with values. Your therapist explains their approach and why it fits your needs. Many therapists integrate multiple approaches where relevant.

Our therapists are located all over the world and work various hours to accommodate different time zones. Depending on where you live, sessions might be in your morning, afternoon, evening, or night. We'll work with you to find times that fit your schedule and our therapists' availability.

Yes. Moving to a new country creates adjustment stress, loneliness, identity shifts, and practical challenges. Therapy helps you navigate the transition, process what you've left behind, and build life where you are now. Moving countries is genuinely difficult even when you chose it.

Try online group therapy first. It costs less. Use HSA/FSA if you have it. Submit for insurance reimbursement if you have out-of-network benefits. Some people do therapy every other week instead of weekly to reduce cost. When combining things we also provide discounts to make it more affordable.
