The Process

Unsure whether therapy is right for you? Maybe you want to know more about our services. Book a free 10-minute call to ask any questions, and let us know how we can help you.

Once we agree to work together, I’ll book our first session and send you some intake forms. This initial appointment is an opportunity to better understand your challenges and agree on the best path forward.

It takes more than one session to help our clients develop new coping skills and manage life’s challenges. Everyone will be different; however, expect to need between 10-40+ sessions, depending on your specific needs.
