    Self-Discovery

Learn more

Starting therapy can be intimidating. The vulnerability aspects of therapy for the client is not taken for granted. The first three session are primarily focused on building rapport to explore what led the client to therapy, discuss an objectives, and develop goals. Each session is not always the same, but does offer a safe and confidential space where clients can share openly at their own pace. Collaboratively, the therapist and client will work on practical strategies, self-discovery, and long-term growth. Therapy is a journey that is not always linear but there should be an expectation for support, encouragement, and progressive approaches.
