  • What Can I Expect At The First Appointment?
    During our first session you will meet with me in a safe, quiet and private space, away from the demands of your day-to-day life. You will be invited to share your story and experiences, explore your thoughts, concerns, or feelings. You will not need to tell me everything at the initial session, just enough to help me understand what it is that brought you to see me. You will have a better understanding about what to expect and have an opportunity to ask me questions. We will discuss your goals begin to develop a treatment plan that best fits your needs.
