What does a first session with you look like?

After the initial assessment session, you should expect a client-centered approach to treatment. You will let me know what you have going on in your life, and we will work collaboratively to develop a plan to address it. We will create a treatment plan and have work between sessions to continue to develop and refine skills. I will always view you as the expert on you, and I am here to help you process through your challenges.
