How It Works
01. “Good Fit” Consultation (10-15 min.)
This is a chance for us to meet briefly before starting therapy to decide if we are a good fit for one another. This call is for you to get a feel of the therapist’s personality and for us to find out a little bit about you. We will ask about your pronouns, location, and goals, availability, insurance information, your questions, and discuss next steps for us to schedule.
02. Preparing for the First Session
Between consultation and the first session, we will run a complimentary benefits check to ensure we are in network and provide you with the results via email. We outsource our billing to DAS Billing company and will ask for demographics, contact information and insurance information.
To prepare for your first session, be kind to yourself, think about why you’re coming to therapy, give therapy a few tries, and advocate for yourself. Bring water, any comfort items and be as honest as possible. We are here to help and want to make sure you get what you need.
03. First Session
Our first session, we will get to know each other, review consents, expectations and documentation, as well as attempt to gain an understanding of if we can provide what you are looking for in therapy. We will ask about a lot of different areas of your life, but you can always decline to talk about anything you don’t want to. We will also provide some education about counseling, our approach, and mental health as a whole.

04. Continuing Support
We will decide together the best frequency for sessions (i.e. weekly or biweekly) and your goals to work on. Depending on the person, we will provide things to think about between sessions or materials to read. Building trust takes time, and if there is anything that will help you feel more able to do so, please communicate that with us. Being open, honest and candid as you can be, the better equipped that makes us to support you.
Our ongoing sessions will be collaborative and look different for different people, with varying goals. We will likely work to identify your strengths, areas of growth, ask you to reflect, and learn new strategies for managing challenges, practice caring for yourself and others, develop or utilize your support network, monitor progress, practice skills, communicate and discuss how the environments we operate in, impact mental health as a whole and how love fits into your life.
05. Maintenance
Therapy can last for varying lengths of time, depending on the client, goals, and approach. We will complete treatment plan reviews every 3-4 months to discuss feedback, how things are going, and adjust as necessary. With this, as your therapist and you decide, you may decrease sessions to monthly or as needed.
