Questions before your first session

We talk about why you are seeking therapy, what you are looking for in a therapist, and next steps should you feel we are a match. I’ll answer your questions, and we briefly collect some basic information to begin.

This time is used to get to know you in a safe space. We discuss the therapeutic process, gather information, and go over policies and procedures. It can take up to four sessions to complete a full intake and evaluation and share what led you here.

Parents and caregivers of children with medical complexities and special needs, foster and adoptive parents, adults navigating grief, and children and teens ages 9–17.

Sessions are 50 to 55 minutes long.

This is all about you. Together we evaluate where you are right “now,” where you want to be, and what’s holding you back from getting there, and we build your toolbox to cope. Weekly sessions are really important at the beginning of your journey.
