What to Expect At Your First Session

We will work with you to identify your goals for therapy and collaboratively create a plan for therapeutic work. Growth and healing may include developing more effective ways of coping, working through recent or past emotional wounds, learning how to create healthier relationships, and building a life that feels authentic and aligned. Therapy is a process and each person's therapy journey will be unique.

Our aim is to help link you with a therapist who you feel is a good fit. Please let us know if you are interested in meeting with a particular therapist. Alternatively, we can help match you with a therapist and will ask about your needs related to scheduling, insurance coverage, preferred gender of the therapist, and presenting issue. 

Please see Our Rates page for Session Fees.
