Your first session is designed to help us get to know each other and begin building a comfortable, supportive environment. During this appointment, we will talk about what brings you to counseling, current concerns, personal history, strengths, goals, and what you hope to gain from the counseling process. You are welcome to share at your own pace, and there is no pressure to discuss anything before you are ready. We will review important information such as confidentiality, policies, scheduling, and any questions you may have about therapy. Together, we will begin identifying goals and developing a plan tailored to your needs. The first session is often more conversational and focused on understanding your experiences, challenges, and support systems. My goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. By the end of the session, you should have a better understanding of how the counseling process works and what the next steps may look like moving forward.
