Questions?

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Where are you located?

    We offer in-person therapy and online therapy. If we meet at our offices, here are the addresses:
    9160 E. Bahia Dr. Suite 107, Scottsdale, AZ 85260

    1405 N. Dobson Rd. Suite 1 Chandler, AZ 85224

    If we meet online, you can be… well, anywhere!

  • What are your hours?

    Our regular working hours are 9 am – 6 pm, Monday through Saturday and 12 - 6pm on Sunday. Our therapists have various availability for in-person sessions. We are flexible with telehealth appointments and often accommodate evening tele-sessions.

    Most of our clients are busy professionals, so we try my best to accommodate your schedule. That means we do evenings and weekends upon request.

  • How long are your sessions?

    Our sessions are typically 50 minutes long, and we offer 90-minute sessions upon request.

  • How does online therapy work?

    Online counseling is awesome! We use Zoom, and you can either access the video by weblink or open the app on your device (phone, tablet, or laptop). We can talk anywhere you have a stable Internet connection – and privacy, of course.

  • With what age ranges do you work?

    Our therapists work with teens 13-year-old and over and adult clients.

  • What exactly is a free initial phone or zoom consultation?

    Before we schedule a session, we provide this call for you to ask any questions and make sure we are a good fit.

    You can tell us about yourself and what you’re looking for in a therapist. We will tell you about our clinical impression and our approach to best help you. We often suggest good reads based on your issues, and we always provide resources and referrals if we are not a good fit.

  • What is your cancellation policy?

    If you can’t make it to an appointment and don’t cancel with us ahead of time (at least 36 hours’ notice), you will be charged the full price of the session.

    That being said, emergencies happen. If there is a surprise, health, or family issue, we understand and will try to reschedule within the week.

  • What should I expect at the first session?

    In your first session, the focus is on getting to know you. We will explore your history (including lifestyle, relationships, major life events, and family background) to understand what has led you to where you are today. We’ll also talk about what has brought you in for therapy, your symptoms, and your primary goals for our journey together.

  • How long does it take to see results from therapy?

    Honest truth: It’s different for everyone. The goal is not to adopt you as a therapy client forever; it’s to help you accomplish your goals and transform your life. Therapy is a process that requires time, effort, and, most importantly, your commitment to making changes in your life.

  • What is your typical process for working with clients?

    In working with us, you can expect sessions that feel like purposeful conversations. Your therapist will ask questions and you will have the opportunity to think and respond. We will explore different patterns and themes that emerge in our conversations. It is normal to experience a range of emotions during our sessions, including sadness, anger, or other difficult feelings. These emotions are an indicator that we are making progress, and your therapist will be there to help you work through them and understand their root causes. Our clients have often reported feeling relieved, lighter, hopeful, optimistic, energized, motivated, and empowered after our sessions; these 50 minutes can be truly transformative and life-changing.

  • Do you take insurance?

    Our therapists selectively accept Aetna, Optum, United Healthcare and Oscar, with limited availability.

    Couple therapy is not covered by insurance typically.

    Most of us are (OON) out-of-network provider. Many health insurance plans cover mental health therapy. Some plans may provide partial or full reimbursement for OON services and may also allow you to submit to your Flexible Spending Account. Wiser Counseling partners with Rimbursify to check your Out of Network benefits and file claims at no additional cost. Please ask if you would like to take advantage of this benefit to cover some of your therapy costs.

  • What are your service fees?

    We are so glad that you’ve decided to put your mental wellness as a top priority. Therapy is an investment in YOUR well-being. It also benefits the people you love because when you feel better, you are able to put more time and attention into your relationships. Anna's rate is $195 per 50-min session. Her team members' rates range from $120 - $180 per 50-min session, depending on their experiences and availability.

Going through the motion has been draining

It feels that life gets too OVERWHELMING, yet dull at the same time.
You can’t remember the last time you felt stress-free.
There seems to be endless fires, at work, at home, and outside work and home that you need to put out.
Looking at your calendar, daily planner, and to-do list overwhelms you.
Family and friends pull you in different directions while work sucks up the last of your energy, leaving you drained and exhausted. Even planning a vacation brings stress.

Frustration and annoyance spillover.

You snap more often. You are losing your cool.
Then the scary thought comes to mind… Am I turning into a nagging wife, an angry mom, a mean boss, and a disengaged friend?
The version of you that you hate to be.

Love was your religion.

And you are losing your faith.
It used to be the harbor of affection and understanding.
When did it turn into battlegrounds of fighting and hurting?

Fading connection and vanishing passion…

You cared so much about each other.
You still do.
Quietly screaming in the sleepless night… what went wrong?
How did two people so much in love turn around and drift away?

Responsibilities slowly weigh you down.

Kindness, altruism, and gratitude are virtues you hold in your soul.
You wonder if caring for others has cost you part of yourself.
Where do you draw the line?
I don’t want to be the selfish b*tch.
Isn’t caring and nurturing the essence of feminine nature?
But you feel bad putting your own needs and wants front and center.

A superwoman’s cape is your disguise.

But you can never get rid of that internal voice. It always reminds you, “You’re not as smart as you think. You’re going to fail.”
The thought of underperforming scares you.
But “Shhh… you can’t tell anyone, right?”
So, you run yourself ragged, trying to meet everyone’s expectations.
You refuse to admit you’re struggling. This is your own battle.
Plus, nobody would truly understand.

I get it. I’m here for you.

Life is too short to continue feeling on edge, distressed, lost, and disgruntled.
The time to get into action is now.
Therapy will help you gain more insights about yourself, restore your confidence, and find more happiness and fulfillment in life.

I’ve been there. I understand how you feel.

Therapy helped me uncover my authentic self, break my limiting beliefs, and nourish my inner strengths.
And I know therapy will help you, too.

Welcome to The Wiser Counseling Center

Hi, I’m Anna, the founder of Wiser Counseling

Who we become and what kind of life we lead is UP TO US. Imagine having a magic wand and achieving anything we want in life.

I don’t have the magic wand, but I’ll help you find the PATHWAY to a joyful and fulfilling life!

I am a motivational life-transformer, a successful ‘multiple’ career switcher, and a resilient single mom, and a behaviorist with over 15 years of clinical training and practice in California and Arizona.

Most people go through their lives not knowing what controls them and wonder why they have hang-ups and unhealthy habits.

Using a combination of approaches, I help my clients break through their limiting beliefs, heal from past traumas, build healthy relationships, and gain clarity and purpose in their lives.
