What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
We will start our first session with brief introductions and begin talking about what is bringing you to therapy; this will help us understand your current concerns and goals. You and I will discuss your goals for therapy; this will be an opportunity to clarify your expectations for therapy. A good rapport is essential for a therapeutic alliance; we will work to establish rapport to create a comfortable and safe space for you to express yourself. Overall, the first session is an opportunity for you and me to get to know each other, establish a foundation for the therapeutic relationship, and collaboratively plan the course of your therapy.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
The world can be overwhelming and daunting. As your therapist, I will walk alongside you to help you uncover your truths, dig deep, and find strategies to live your best lives. Working with many modalities, I strive to empower clients to see that change is possible through goal-setting and small actions.
