Important Info

Once you’ve scheduled your first appointment:

Couples

1. Assessment: we will identify what your goals are and how I can help you reach your goals. If I don’t think I can help you reach your goals, I will refer you to another therapist.

2. The next two sessions will be individual sessions where I will get a history of you as an individual in relationship to your family, society and adult relationships.

3. The fourth session will include an agreement on how the process of therapy will work to help you reach your goals. We will start the process of therapy and at the end of this session, you will walk away with an experiment to try outside of session. From here I’ll recommend weekly or bi-weekly treatment for either 50 or 80 minutes.

4. After 12 sessions, we’ll evaluate how treatment is progressing.

Individuals:

During your first session, we aim to establish a strong foundation for the therapeutic relationship and gather important information about your history, concerns, and goals. The specific content of a first session can vary depending on your needs and which therapist you are working with.

In follow-up therapy sessions, you'll engage in experiential practices to deepen your understanding of emotions and behavior patterns, possibly including mindfulness for staying present and increasing self-awareness. You'll explore Internal Family Systems (IFS) processing, a method to understand inner aspects' impact on your thoughts, feelings, and actions. You'll identify negative relationship cycles with your therapist, shedding light on recurring issues causing distress. This collaborative journey enhances self-understanding and fosters personal growth.
