What can I expect during my first session?

During your first session, you will have the opportunity to discuss your concerns, goals, and any relevant background information. I will ask questions to understand your situation better and help establish a comfortable and trusting environment.

Yes, confidentiality is a fundamental aspect of therapy. What you discuss in sessions is kept private, with few exceptions related to safety (e.g. if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others). I will explain confidentiality policies during your initial session.

How do I choose the right therapist for me?

Finding the right therapist is a personal process. Consider factors like qualifications, therapeutic approach, and areas of expertise. It is also important to feel comfortable and understood by your therapist. Many therapists offer an initial consultation, which can help you determine if it is a good fit.
