Therapy Consultations
Feeling Overwhelmed with Life?
Learn how therapy can help
Schedule an online or in-person therapy consultation to help determine YOUR specific needs and goals for therapy.
Therapy consultations are designed to introduce you to the therapist and the therapy process. During your consultation we will discuss your current needs, history, areas of concern, and strengths.
This is your opportunity to meet your therapist, learn about our services, and discover how we can help you.
You will have the opportunity to ask questions and understand the feeling of the therapeutic space. It’s a perfect opportunity to review your concerns and how my skills may help. We’ll discuss what brings you to therapy, what you hope to accomplish, and help match you to appropriate services. This personalized interaction aims to give you a glimpse into the therapeutic process and help you assess the rapport and compatibility with the therapist.

If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to us directly.
Why have a therapy consultation?
It’s hard enough to reach out for help and even harder to figure out which therapist is right for you. Especially if it’s your first time. Therapy consultations help you with that process.
Consultations help you decide if this is the place for you. The relationship between you and your therapist plays a huge role on your journey to relief. Why not have the opportunity to find a good fit before you get started? We receive blueprints from contractors and diagnostics from mechanics, why not get a plan from your prospective therapist? The plan is flexible and encourages success.
Why are therapy consultations are important?
Therapy Consultations allow you to…
* Learn your options for reaching your goals
* Better understand the therapy process
* Get direct answers to your questions
* Determine which services best address your needs
* Meet your therapist to determine if you are comfortable
What if the therapist and I are not a good fit?
We will gladly provide referrals to services that may better suit your needs. We firmly believe that the connection between you and your therapist helps you do your best work.
Does a consultation mean that you are my therapist?
No, it does not. Therapy consultations do not obligate you to continue services. No therapy services are provided during consultations. The focus is on identifying opportunities for change and exploring the space.

NOTE:
Due to the nature of counseling and the amount of time allotted to active clients, availability is likely to fill up quickly. As a result, we are unable to guarantee availability of a specific therapist at the time you begin services.
