What to Expect
Privacy and Confidentiality
It should go without saying that you can expect absolute privacy and confidentiality. There may be instances when you choose to allow information to be released; in that case, your Therapist should obtain a signed consent form from you. If your therapy is provided as an employment benefit, there should be no requirement for the Therapist to report back to an employer about your progress.
First Session
During scheduling of your first appointment we will ask for some basic information from you to assess if our practice can provide you with appropriate treatment. If we determine we can help you, we will schedule an in-take appointment. During this initial session a therapist will evaluate you, asking about your background and why you are seeking treatment. This is the occasion upon which you can begin to establish a harmonious working relationship with the therapist. Any questions you need answered about our service, including privacy practices, can be responded to by the therapist at this session.
Follow Up Sessions
The first session is a collaborative effort by both participants to determine the best treatment plan. If it is decided the therapist assigned to you is a good fit, we will set up a regularly scheduled appointment (usually on a weekly basis), according to the availability of both participants. Therapy sessions normally run about one hour. The second session with the therapist is about goal-setting and what are your expectations of therapy, if any. From this second session forward, you and the therapist will work to achieve the best outcome for your mental health and / or personal growth issues.
