Our first session
The first session is where you decide if you feel safe, accepted, understood, and comforted by the therapist. First sessions are always icebreakers and touching base on different things. We identify current struggles and, have some explorations of the past, and work to see what is the best path to feeling better and even healing. This is kept light, and I try to establish a level of comfort you welcome for your therapy journey.
Our following sessions
We talk like regular people getting to know each other to develop a more safe and understood place. We touch on things that are a struggle but do not sit in them the entire time. You do not always have to have a struggle or something negative to do a session, sometimes you can just talk to vent about day-to-day, be heard and validated. Do not add stress to self feeling you are wasting your time, we still discover things through simple talks. There will be an array of emotions felt through sessions; this is part of the journey. Your journey is in your control, I am only walking the path with you as you grow, gain strength, and walk tall.
