The Therapeutic Process
Schedule a Free 15-minute consultation over the phone. During this phone call, we will briefly explore your needs, provide more information about the practice, establish you in the client portal, and answer any questions you may have. I am here for you!
Intake
The initial appointment is called the “intake” which is a 60-minute session to gather information about your current stressors, mental health symptoms and history. By the end of the initial meeting, specific goals will be established and frequency of treatment would be agreed upon.
Follow Up Appointments
The follow up appointments are typically 45- to 60-minute sessions on a weekly or biweekly basis, depending on your needs and progress in treatment. During our time together, we will look at building strategies and solutions in hopes of making progress toward your identified goals.
Treatment and Discharge
The length of a treatment episode can range drastically from person-to-person. Eventually, once you’ve felt you’ve met your treatment goals, termination and discharge would take place.
