What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In the first session with me, clients can expect a welcoming and supportive environment where we’ll discuss their concerns and goals. We’ll begin with an initial assessment to better understand their mental health history, current challenges, and strengths. This helps guide the evaluation of their needs and potential treatment options. If applicable, we’ll talk about medication management, including any current medications or the possibility of exploring medication options. Additionally, we’ll start developing a therapeutic relationship, focusing on building trust and establishing a foundation for ongoing support and collaboration.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I believe my greatest strengths as a provider are my ability to create a compassionate and non-judgmental space where clients feel heard and understood, my strong foundation in evidence-based practices, and my dedication to tailoring treatment to each individual’s unique needs. Long history of working with mental patients. I am also highly collaborative, working closely with clients to empower them in their healing journey while offering practical tools and ongoing support.
