What to expect in session one
A welcoming, collaborative conversation.
- Review consent, privacy, and how you prefer to communicate.
- Discuss what brings you to therapy and what you hope will change.
- Share relevant history at your own pace—there is no rush.
- Set initial goals and frequency together so you feel in control.
How to prepare
- Find a private, comfortable space (for telehealth) and test your connection.
- Jot down questions or topics you want to explore.
- Have insurance details handy if using benefits; we can verify coverage.
- Plan a few minutes after session to decompress—walk, breathe, or journal.

How long does therapy take?
It depends on your goals. Some people see meaningful shifts in a few months, while others prefer longer-term support. We check in together about progress.
Can I change therapists?

Do you prescribe medication?
We provide psychotherapy and, when helpful, collaborate with your prescriber or refer you to trusted psychiatry partners.
