Before We Meet
It can be challenging and time-consuming to find the right therapist, so I offer free initial phone consultations (20 minutes) to help you with the process. In this initial conversation, we will have an opportunity to discuss your situation and identify the next steps that may be most helpful to you. I also encourage you to ask me any questions you have about therapy or my approach. I find that these consultations can give us both a better sense of what it might be like to work together, which can help us to decide if this is a good fit.
First Appointment
In your initial appointment, I will get a better sense of what is going on for you, and we will talk about how I can help. Research shows that a good fit and a collaborative relationship between client and therapist is an important factor in how well therapy works, so this is a time for me to gather as much information as possible, and for us to get to know one another. By the end of this initial appointment, we will either schedule an ongoing, weekly appointment, or I will provide you with recommendations for other treatment options if there are other providers who may be better able to meet your needs.

It is common to have questions about therapy, and I have answered the questions and concerns that I hear most often. If your question isn't on my list, please get in touch. I would love to talk with you.
