I like to start where the client is at. I often tell clients that therapy is an even exchange of information. The more we can openly dialogue, the more we can know the other and we can figure out what areas to focus and work on.

Sessions are an open space to discuss whatever is on a client's mind. Client's current functioning is always discussed in addition to addressing any goals or homework assignments that were given the week prior.
