Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be Christian to receive services at Ever Forward?
No. While all of our clinicians hold a Christian worldview, we welcome individuals from all backgrounds and beliefs. Spiritual integration is always optional and guest-led.
Do you work with guests from diverse backgrounds?
Yes. We are committed to providing culturally responsive care to guests from all walks of life. This includes honoring race, ethnicity, faith, gender, and lived experience.
Do you accept insurance?
How long will I be in therapy?
Most guests experience relief from their most pressing symptoms within 6 to 14 sessions, depending on goals and presenting concerns.
What does the first session look like?
Why do you use the term "guest" instead of client?
Language matters. Michael Cortina pioneered the use of the word “guest” within The Cortina Method, and Dr. Barber proudly adopts it here. Traditional clinical labels often create an intentional distance between the professional and the individual. By viewing you as a guest, we shift the dynamic to one of warmth, safety, and mutual respect.
