Taking the first step towards healing and growth is a sign of strength. We're here to support you on your journey. Please reach out to schedule your first appointment or to ask any questions you may have. Let's explore together how we can help you move forward with confidence and clarity.
Your first session is a welcoming space for us to get to know each other. It's an opportunity for you to share what brings you to therapy, your goals, and any concerns you might have. We'll discuss the therapy process, confidentiality, and how we can work together to support your journey. Think of it as a first step towards understanding and change, in a safe and non-judgmental environment.
Each therapy session is typically 60 minutes long. This timeframe allows us to dive deep into the topics at hand while respecting the rhythm of your day. Depending on the nature of our work together, the length and frequency of sessions can be adjusted to best meet your needs and goals.
Choosing the right therapy approach is a collaborative process. During our initial sessions, we'll explore your personal history, current challenges, and what you hope to achieve. Based on this, we can determine the most effective therapeutic approach that resonates with you, whether that's cognitive-behavioral, narrative, solution-focused or another modality. Our goal is to tailor the therapy to fit you, not the other way around.
Yes, confidentiality is a cornerstone of therapy. What you share in sessions stays between us, with very few exceptions related to safety and legal obligations. This confidentiality is crucial for creating a trusting and open environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment or exposure.
