Wow, what an exciting and courageous time for you to begin your therapy journey!
I know how difficult and daunting it can be to start therapy, and I am here to help make it the best experience possible for you. First, I will get you booked in for a 15-minute complimentary consultation. This is to determine if I am the best therapist for your needs and concerns.
Then, we will find a time that works best for your schedule. The first session typically involves an intake assessment, an orientation to therapy, completion and discussion of informed consent, and an opportunity answer any questions you may have. In the first session, we will set goals together that will guide us in your treatment.
YES
Outside of a few very specific and important considerations (we will discuss all this together so there are no surprises!), therapy is private and confidential.
This is one of the most precious and beautiful thing about therapy – it is a safe, warm and non-judgmental space for you to disclose those problems that you wish to not reveal to anyone else, and to provide you with the support that you need.
GREAT question…Therapy can range from short, brief counselling or it can take many sessions for you to see improvements for the concerns you have and the areas of your life you want to address.
We will discuss the typical course of treatment and pacing together in the intake session.
I take great pride in managing my practice so that everyone has timely access to treatment – best case scenario, I can get you booked in within a few days to one week after our initial consultation.
We will find a date and time that fits your schedule – and we will keep sessions consistent and predictable, or flexible to fit your schedule.
We will focus our time on what is most important – YOU are the driver of therapy and change!.
