✦ For new clients
Reaching out is a big step. Here’s what to expect, from your first message to your first session.
✦ Getting started
01
A relaxed 15-minute phone or video call to share what brings you here and ask any questions.
02
We’ll send a secure link to our client portal for consent forms and a short questionnaire.
03
We get to know you, talk about your goals and agree on a plan that feels right.
04
Weekly or every other week, online or in person — we review progress together regularly.
✦ Your first session
01
Find a quiet, private space if you’re meeting online. Jot down anything you’d like to mention — or nothing at all.
02
We’ll talk about what brings you in, your history and your hopes for therapy. You share only what feels comfortable.
03
It’s normal to feel tired or tender. Be gentle with yourself, and notice whether the fit feels right.
✦ Your privacy
What you share in therapy is confidential. We store records securely in our client portal and never share your information without your written consent.
There are a few legal exceptions — for example, if there is a serious risk of harm to you or someone else, or if a court orders records. We’ll go through these with you at the start.
