In your first session, we’ll focus on getting to know each other and understanding your reasons for seeking therapy. I’ll ask about your background, any concerns you have, and what you hope to achieve through therapy. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and get comfortable with the process. The goal is to create a safe and welcoming environment where you feel at ease sharing your thoughts and feelings.

Each therapy session typically lasts around 50 minutes. This duration allows us enough time to explore your concerns and work on strategies for growth and healing without feeling rushed. Depending on your needs, we can discuss longer or shorter sessions as part of your treatment plan.

The frequency of sessions depends on your individual needs and goals. Many clients start with weekly sessions and adjust the frequency over time based on their progress. We will work together to determine the best schedule for you, ensuring you receive the support you need to achieve your desired outcomes.

Yes, confidentiality is a core component of the therapeutic process. Everything you share in our sessions is private and protected by law, except in specific situations where there is a risk of harm to yourself or others. I am committed to maintaining a safe, respectful, and confidential space for you to express yourself freely.

Therapy is a personal journey, and progress can look different for everyone. Some signs that therapy is working include feeling more hopeful, noticing changes in your thoughts or behaviors, and developing healthier coping mechanisms. We will regularly check in on your progress and adjust our approach as needed to ensure you are getting the most out of your sessions.
