Do you see clients below 18 years old?

Yes. Face-to-face sessions (taken through a clinic; please email me at jbbantigue.psych@gmail.com so I can process the referral) are highly recommended for younger clients. Older teens (15-18 years old) may avail teletherapy through SeriousMD/NowServing. A parent or guardian is required to sign the informed consent form for a minor. They may also be asked to join the first session.

How much is a session?

First session or 90-minute session: PhP 3,000 Succeeding sessions or 60-minute session: PhP 2,500

Can I book a face to face consultation with you?

I take face-to-face therapy sessions through a clinic (rates will vary). Please email me at jbbantigue.psych@gmail.com so I can process the referral.

Do you issue Medical Certificates?

No, I do not issue medical certificates. I may, however, issue a certification letter (at a cost) indicating your availment of sessions.

What happens in therapy?

The first session or the intake session is conducted to better understand your context, your core concerns, and what you want to get out of therapy. Succeeding sessions (frequency will depend on our agreement) will focus on addressing the concerns and meeting specific therapy goals. Expect to feel discomfort and unpleasant emotions throughout the sessions as you will be talking about personal and sensitive information.
