What does the counseling process look like? We will begin with a 60-minute intake assessment/session where our goal is to get all your information, history, goals for counseling and basically get to know you. We want to make sure you are in the right place and assigned to the right counselor. We value the importance of a proper treatment. After an intake session you will then have your individual counseling sessions. How many times you are seen in a month depends on several factors (we tend to have a good idea after your intake session). Therapy will be 45 minutes and we will be talking about comfortable and uncomfortable stuff. Every session will look and feel very different. We like to describe counseling like a marathon, not a race. The idea is that we get to the finish line. Therapy can sometimes bring up different emotions and thoughts, which is normal but can feel challenging. As you are accomplishing you goals and begin your healing process, you and your counselor will discuss how the treatment is going and when you are ready to graduate from counseling!
