What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then complete an assessment/evaluation that will assist in helping me develop a plan that makes us both comfortable. We will dive into the specific challenges you're facing so that I can create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
