Your First Visit
You will want to arrive approximately 15 minutes early before your scheduled appointment time in order to fill out some necessary paperwork. Please make sure to bring your insurance card and a list of any medications you may be taking.
Adult Mental Health Counseling
On your first visit, we will get to know each other and discuss the reason(s) you are seeking counseling with me at this time. You will discuss the things that are going on in your life, as well as the difficulties you face that you wish to resolve in the healthiest manner. You can expect that by the second or third session, we will formulate a treatment plan that works best for you.
Child & Adolescent Mental Health Counseling
In case of divorce, court involved custody matters, or legal guardianship, please bring documents stating the custody arrangements for any child younger than 14 years of age. During the first visit, I will meet with the parent(s)/guardian, and the child/adolescent.
You can expect that by the second or third session, we will formulate a treatment plan that works best for your child or adolescent. Also your child will have access to a play therapy room when developmentally appropriate for subsequent play therapy sessions.
