Wh​at happens during my free 30 min phone consultation?
Wh​at happens during my free 30 min phone consultation?
I will take some basic details from you and we will discuss any issues that you are currently looking to work on. This is also a good opportunity for you to ask any additional questions that you may have about me or how I work. At the end of the consultation, we will decide if we can work together and what the next steps will be.
How long will therapy take?
How long will therapy take?
There is no specific time frame when working on personal development and growth. Depending on the type of changes that you are looking to make and the variety of issues that you are attempting to work on, therapy can last from a few sessions to much longer. Some find therapy to be extremely beneficial and choose to make it a long-term process.
There will come a time when therapy no longer feels necessary and you have accomplished the goals you first set out to achieve. Ending therapy can be an awkward, emotional, or even painful process, so it is important to discuss any uncomfortable feelings and attain closure, process feelings of loss, and develop a plan for maintaining the progress you've made.

Does what we talk about in therapy remain confidential?
Does what we talk about in therapy remain confidential?
Confidentiality is one of the most important components in therapy, as successful therapy requires a high degree of trust. With few exceptions, the highly sensitive material that is discussed between us will not be shared with anyone else without your permission. However, I am legally mandated to make certain disclosures in cases where there is suspicion of harm to oneself, harm to others, or child abuse. All such disclosures will be discussed with you in advance.
