Before your first session I send you paperwork to fill out that asks you more questions about your needs and outlines practice policies of mine. In the first session I go over those practice polices and see if you have any questions. After that, we dive into information gathering where I will ask you detailed questions about your life, history, important people in your life, what your needs for therapy are and how what’s brining you in is impacting your daily life. All these questions are pertinent to help me get to know you better, your support system, and what is impacting you daily to best be able to support you moving forward.
