Get to know me

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

Review of Rights and Responsibilities: I will explain what you can expect from the counseling process, including confidentiality, the counselor's professional boundaries, and your rights as a client. This establishes trust and transparency. Discussion of Reasons for Seeking Counseling: I will invite you to share why you have come to counseling. This could include specific issues or challenges you are facing, as well as any goals or aspirations you have for yourself. Exploration of Goals: Together we will discuss what you hope to achieve through counseling. This might involve clarifying personal goals, improving relationships, managing emotions more effectively, or any other areas where you seek growth or change. Listening and Collaboration: I will actively listen to your concerns, needs, and desires. This collaborative approach ensures that the counseling process is tailored to your individual needs and preferences. Development of Treatment Focus: Based on your discussions, we will work together to outline a treatment plan or focus areas for your counseling sessions. This plan serves as a roadmap for your sessions and helps track progress over time.
