We understand starting therapy can be a big leap of faith into the unknown. It takes courage and commitment to start, so thank you for considering us to support you.
The first few sessions are generally focused on history taking and getting to know each other, to ensure we are crystal clear on what we are working towards, to develop a treatment plan which will guide the following sessions.
Depending on your presentation and the treatment plan, therapy can look different for each individual, but we will be sure to help you know what to expect at the beginning of your treatment, and as it progresses. We will discuss with you the length and frequency of treatment.
