SESSIONS

Sessions are 50 minutes long and I usually recommend that we meet weekly, at least at the beginning.  In the event you need to cancel or reschedule, I ask that you let me know at least 24 hours in advance.  Although I have a standard fee, I prefer to discuss this with you when you contact me to set up your initial session.

On your first visit, I'll normally ask you to fill out a brief client information form and sign an informed consent about treatment.  I will also give you some information about your rights regarding confidentiality as a psychotherapy client.  I'm interested in hearing what brought you to therapy and I'll do my best to let you know whether I think I can be of assistance to you.  In the event that I don't think I'll be able to help, I'll be happy to refer you to another therapist. During your initial visit, I'll try to answer any questions you may have about my qualifications and the process of therapy as I see it.  It is my intention that you benefit from our time together and feel free to let me know what this process is like for you.
