Frequently Asked

Oftentimes, we don’t know if a therapist is a good fit until therapy begins. I offer a complimentary 15 minutes “Good Fit” chat to provide an idea of what therapy could look like but this does not provide a full picture of what I work together will look like. I also encourage individuals to attend at least multiple sessions before making a decision about fit, this allows time for rapport building and obtaining a better understanding of the presenting concerns. However, it is okay if you decide early on that a therapist you meet is not a good fit, what’s most important that you receive the services that you need, and that is okay if it is with another therapist.

Therapy is a wonderful tool to assist individuals live happy, fulfilling lives. Therapy addresses a wide range of mental health challenges and disorders, such as stress, anxiety, depression, traumas and different life transitions. There are many answers to this question, what you can expect from therapy varies based on the individual’s presenting concerns and their attempts to resolve them. Generally, therapy at Intentional Living, Psychotherapy is primarily guided by the client. In therapy, we will spend time talking, uncovering, and processing what is of most importance to you. We also find solutions, when necessary, and incorporate new ways of living. This allows therapy to be tailored to you!

During our first session:

1. Completion of initial intake form

2. Information gathering and assessments

3. Goal setting for ongoing treatment

Initial Intake Session- 60 minutes

Ongoing Individual Sessions- 45-60 minutes

How often we meet is based on acuity of concerns. I encourage at the beginning of treatment, clients meet once per week, biweekly or no later than every 3 weeks. If you believe you need a different frequency of treatment, please discuss further with your therapist.
