Clients can expect a welcoming, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment during their first session. We will spend time discussing your concerns, symptoms, medical and mental health history, current stressors, and treatment goals.
I will ask detailed questions to better understand your experiences and may review past treatments, medications, and any relevant records. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and share what you hope to gain from care.
By the end of the visit, we will discuss initial impressions and collaborate on a personalized treatment plan, which may include therapy recommendations, lifestyle strategies, medication options (if appropriate), and next steps.
