1. Is Therapy the Right Choice for Me at This Time?
People come to therapy for many reasons. Sometimes it is to address long-standing psychological issues or problems with anxiety or depression. Other times it is in response to unexpected changes in         one's life, such as a painful break-up/divorce or work transition. Many     seek a fresh perspective as they pursue their own personal exploration.  
            
2. How Can Working with a Therapist Help?
  • Provides insight, support and new strategies for all types of  life   challenges.
  • Gives you new skills & tools to communicate more effectively with your partner or spouse as well as with family, friends and work colleagues.
  • Helps you redirect damaging patterns and cope more effectively with whatever challenges you face.
  • Strengthens your mindfulness and increases self respect, self esteem  and compassion.

What Kind of Therapy Is Best for Me and How Will I Know?

    I suggest an initial consultation. Even if you email me first, it helps
    to have phone contact so you can experience my voice and 
manner
    of
being with you. If I answer your initial questions to your
    
satisfaction and the experience feels good, set up a
face-to-face
    consultation with me.


    Before the  consultation, think about what you're looking for in a  
      therapist and what goals you have. During the consultation, allow
  
   yourself to ask pertinent questions and see what it feels like when I  
   
respond. By the end of the initial session you should know whether:


   1. You like your experience, feel safe, and sense that I have the skills
       and range of experience you will need for your work to unfold;
  

   2. You like your experience, but need one more session to get a more
​       accurate sense of whether I am the right therapist for you
;


   3. I am not the ideal therapist for you and you'd like a referral.
