Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our first session, I will work diligently to establish and build initial rapport and build a strong therapeutic alliance and relationship which will serve as the foundation of the care you will receive from me. I will also make sure to answer any questions you may have regarding how therapy works and what to expect from it. As a next step, I will be asking questions which will assist me with gathering information relevant to your background. This will help enhance our work together as well as help me with identifying your strengths, needs and any goals you would like to set and work on, during our time together.
