Message to clients

Hello! I am happy for you for reaching out and taking the first steps toward the journey of change! At times making the first call, sending message, making first appointment, or even when continuing on therapy with a new therapist, it can bring up range of emotions. Therefore, I've come to learn that many find it to be most helpful to know what can be expected. During our initial session I will go over with you paperwork filled out prior to session to ensure understanding. Then we will discuss reason for seeking therapy at this time and any history of therapy. Following we will engage in open dialogue conversation regarding history of self, family, current stressors in various areas of life both past and present as well as safety concerns if any. Toward remainder of session we will discuss goals for therapy and/or plan moving forward, which may include the scheduling for future sessions; how often as well as day/times preferred. If have any questions prior to therapy, please don't hesitate to reach out and send me a message. I will do my best to get back to you within 24-48 hours. Looking forward to meeting you!
