We will spend the first few sessions getting to know each other. We will discuss what brings you into my office and develop short and long term goals, which we will focus on. I listen to your life story so I can understand the facts of your life, as well as how you view and interpret those facts. Learning about your family history as well as the present circumstances will help us to identify and understand strengths and opportunities for improvement. Homework will be assigned between sessions.
You will have to decide if I am the right therapist for you. The success of our work depends upon comfort and trust. Ask any questions about the work we will do together. Some questions you may wish to ask me include:
In general, conversations with a therapist are confidential. However, in certain situations a therapist may be required by law to report serious concerns to authorities. We will discuss confidentiality during the first session.
Sessions typically last 50 minutes.
I accept direct payment only, cash or check. Upon request, I can provide you with an invoice to submit to insurance.
