What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, build rapport, and discuss the current challenges you're facing. We will begin where you want to begin and I will tailor a plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. The plan is flexible and can be changed to meet your needs and your preferred pace.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked in mental health field for over 10 years and being a clinician for the last 5, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress (c) feel safe, accepted, and heard in sessions.
