I appreciate your want to work with me! Therapy can be life transforming but may also feel quite intimidating especially if this is your first time attending a session. I want this experience to be warm, collaborative and most importantly, effective. To that end, during our first session we will begin with introductions, I would then like to answer any questions you may have about this process, next we will discuss the specifics challenges/symptoms you're facing and then end with setting general goals for therapy that will be refined throughout our time working together.
