FAQ

  • The first session is an opportunity for us to meet face-to-face. At this time, your therapist will provide a comprehensive assessment, which will take into account your personal history, present-day concerns, and what you might be hoping for in the therapeutic process. If you have specific goals for therapy and/or beyond, you can talk about those, too. Together, you’ll address any concerns or questions you have regarding therapy, and identify a plan to move forward with. If you both agree to continue working together, therapy will begin during the following session. If, for any reason, you and/or your therapist don't believe that working together is the best fit for you, we’ll provide you with specific referrals based on the comprehensive assessment provided.

Be mindful of the training and experience of any practitioner you may consider working with.
