  5 Ways to Get The Most Out of Therapy

Consultations

I offer a free 15-20 minute phone or video consultation.

During the consultation I will ask you questions about your expectations, goals and previous therapy experiences; the purpose being to help determine if we think we are a good therapist/client fit.

I encourage clients also ask clarifying questions in order to help determine for themselves if they think we are a good fit. 

Intake Form 

I will ask you to fill out an Intake Form. This will cover necessary contact information  as well as anything relevant to your therapy that you wish to share with me.  This can be filled out online before our first session or in-office during the session.  Everything of course is held in secure and strictest confidentiality. Signing and dating a Telecommunication Consent Form is also required for online appointments .
