Your first session
What happens before, during and after
Step 1: Before: you write or call
Tell us the times that suit you and how to reach you. You do not need to say why you are coming.
Step 2: Before: the 15-minute call
A call about fit. It is not therapy, an evaluation or an assessment. You can ask anything, including what we will not ask you.
Step 3: Before: your estimate
If you are paying without insurance, you get a written Good Faith Estimate before the session.
Step 4: During: sixty minutes
Your clinician explains how they work, what stays private and where the limits of privacy are, and the possible risks and benefits of therapy.
Step 5: During: you set the pace
You say what you want to bring. You can say pass to anything.
Step 6: After: you decide
At the end you and your clinician decide whether to continue, and how often. A receipt follows each month.
The room
A room with a lamp, not a clinic
Soft light, two chairs and a sofa. If you would rather start by video, you can, and you can switch.
