What to Expect
Many people have fears, preconceptions, and at times no idea at all about what therapy will be like when they schedule a session. We want to demystify your experience and put you at ease. Here's what you can expect:
Initial Paperwork
Upon arrival at your first appointment you will be required to fill in paperwork that will include basic demographic information along with your current concerns and goals for therapy.
Office Visit
If you are coming to the office, have a seat in the waiting room. Your therapist will greet you in the waiting room.
Virtual Sessions
If you are scheduled for a virtual session, click the link in the email sent to you and the screen will show a virtual waiting room. Just sit tight and your therapist will be with you at the scheduled time.
Overview of the Process
What you talk about in session is completely confidential with a few legal and ethical exceptions, which will be explained to you (and which are outlined in our consent document). If you have any questions about those policies, please ask.
An Open Conversation
From there on, it’s a conversation and there are no right or wrong things for you to say. If there is something about your therapist that seems like it would get in the way of you feeling comfortable being honest, you can say so, and your therapist may be able to help you feel more comfortable. If the relationship does not seem like a fit for you, speak up. A referral to another therapist is always an option.
Discuss Ongoing Sessions
You can discuss a regular meeting time with your therapist so that this time becomes your reserved time.
