Good for you! I know it
can be uncomfortable, even scary, to finally take that first
step. However, I can reassure you that most people quickly
get past any embarrassment or fear of therapy. They find
that having a sympathetic, confidential, and understanding
listener is a great relief. At the initial session, you will
have the opportunity to tell me at length what is going on
with you. I will ask you questions to bring out specific
kinds of information, but we can always talk about whatever
you want. As you get more comfortable, I will gently shift
your focus from your problems to what to do about them.
Working together, we will identify goals of therapy and
develop a plan to achieve your goals. The good news about
the cognitive-behavioral methods I use is that therapy can
often be accomplished quickly, typically in five to ten
sessions. What better time is there than now to get started
on the path to personal empowerment and emotional well
being. Take advantage of this free offer and call me today!
