In your first session with Tony, you should expect a calm, welcoming, and respectful space.

You will start with introductions and a review of confidentiality, consent, and therapy structure. You will discuss what brought you to therapy and what you want help with right now. You set the pace.

Tony will ask focused questions about your history, current stressors, strengths, and supports. The goal is understanding, not judgment. You do not need to share more than you feel ready to share.

You will work together to identify initial goals and priorities. Tony will explain how therapy works, what approaches he uses, and how sessions typically flow. You will have time to ask questions.

Before the session ends, you will review next steps. This includes goals for upcoming sessions, scheduling, and any follow-up tasks if appropriate.

You should leave feeling heard, respected, and clear about what comes next.
