What does a first session with you look like?
The first session, as with all Thriveworks therapists, will involve talking through your needs and goals for therapy — whether those involve managing depression, anxiety, relationship problems, or another mental health challenge.

Clients are guided and supported as they work through their unique mental health challenges – and, along the way, shown the life-changing power of therapy.
