What to expect, for the new client…
In anticipation of your upcoming appointment, please accept my appreciation for selecting me. I welcome the opportunity to work with you!
If possible, please print out and complete the following forms: client registration and treatment information and agreement. This saves us time during the first appointment.
Our initial meeting provides my clients with an opportunity to discuss their concerns and the primary reason for seeking therapy. Here, history is taken, goals are set and questions are answered. My priority is you and to ensure that you receive the very best treatment for your concerns. Our work together will consist of meeting weekly or every-other week for an hour. After a few sessions we will re-evaluate your treatment and decide together how to continue to move forward. I truly look forward to meeting you.
Emergencies
As I am a sole practitioner, I am unable to respond immediately to emergencies 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. Community Mental Health Centers and some larger group practices do have this capability. If you believe that you will experience multiple emergencies perhaps you may consider seeking services from your local mental health center or a larger group practice.
