What do therapy sessions with you look like?
Therapy sessions are 55 minutes and the frequency of sessions will be based on your specific needs and goals.   Our initial session will be focused on a comprehensive review of your medical, family and social history to give me a better understanding of how I can best help you. We will work together to develop goals and a plan for how best to make positive change moving forward. Therapy is about you.  My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space for you to openly share whatever is bringing you to take this step so that we can actively work together to address these issues and get you to a better place.
My name is Val Warne.  I live in Northern Michigan, am married and have 2 grown daughters.  I love the outdoors, nature and the slower pace of life this area offers. I have been a therapist for over 30 years and have worked in both the public and private sector.  I spent 10 years working with teens transitioning from high school to college, trade school or the work force and 18 years with the VA where I worked with disabled veterans transitioning back to civilian life and employment.  I also worked for several years in a private, out patient, rehabilitation facility that focused on closed head injury. I have had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of populations over the years and have developed a broad and diverse range of skill sets as a result.  I am vested and committed to helping you in your journey to healing.

What does a typical session with you tend to look like?
A typical session - your initial consultation with the clinician that you picked. You two talk about what you are looking for in a clinician. The clinician and you agree to continue seeing each other or not. If not, the clinician will offer some referrals to you and wish you well on your journey. The following sessions are usually 45 minutes of discussing the issue at the surface level. Together the two of you will try to find the root of the issue and the symptoms that it may exhibit. They'll arm you with healthy ways of processing through feelings and challenges. Their goal is to help you improve your life in every way that they can. We have several clinicians so the best way to figure out which one is right for you is to visit our website and read about their focus areas.
I'm the founder and CEO of Thera-Fi. Our team of licensed professionals offer discrete therapy online to clients anywhere in Ohio. I was tired of seeing clients turned away because of insurance issues (you only get X number of approved visits, surprise bills hitting clients, forcing a diagnosis on someone). I was also tired of seeing facilities gouge clients at $250 an hour and burn out their clinicians. My job is to keep the clinicians focused on providing the best service to you as possible so that you leave with a new focus. Balance is the key to living a good life.
