The first session is an opportunity for me to begin understanding who you are, where you are right now, and how we can start working together in a way that feels meaningful and effective. I recognize that starting therapy can feel anxiety-provoking, so we move at a pace that feels comfortable while also making space for honest conversation. You’ll have a chance to get to know me as well, so we can determine whether the fit feels right for you. Together, we’ll begin putting the puzzle pieces together—identifying patterns, clarifying what matters most to you, and exploring the changes you’d like to see. From there, we’ll start shaping clear, values-based goals that give us direction moving forward.
