In the first session, clients can expect a warm and welcoming environment where they can share their concerns and goals. We will discuss their background, current challenges, and what they hope to achieve through our work together. I'll also explain my approach and the tools we might use. This initial session is primarily about building rapport, understanding their needs, and laying the groundwork for future sessions. Clients should leave feeling hear, validated, and with a clear sense of the path forward.
My greatest strengths are my ability to create a safe space where clients feel heard and understood. My own experiences and awareness of the unique challenges faced by women. Lastly, my ability to help clients identify practical strategies to overcome anxiety, depression, and career challenges.
