• All of our sessions are tailored to fit your needs.

• At our first session we will get to know each other, so plan to spend 60 minutes.

• Thereafter, we can meet weekly for 50 minute sessions, longer if you would like.

• To get the full benefit of therapy it’s important that you commit to 8 weeks of sessions. You will definitely notice an improvement in yourself if you make the commitment.

• Some issues can be resolved in a short amount of time; the frequency and duration is up to you.

• A well-rounded or in depth approach usually requires a longer period of time, since complex issues require more sessions to explore deeper issues or feelings.

Therapists can provide support, problem-solving skills, and enhanced coping strategies for issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship troubles, unresolved childhood issues, grief, stress management, body image issues and creative blocks. Many people also find that counselors can be a tremendous asset to managing personal growth, interpersonal relationships, family concerns, marriage issues, and the hassles of daily life. Therapists can provide a fresh perspective on a difficult problem or point you in the direction of a solution. The benefits you obtain from therapy depend on how well you use the process and put into practice what you learn.
