Welcome to the first step of your journey towards healing! Your exploration into getting started is a significant milestone. The next phase involves a consultation aimed at determining if we're a good fit for your healing journey and assessing the optimal treatment duration. Each person's path to healing is unique, but there are foundational aspects we'll focus on:
BEGIN: Intake forms are sent through your client portal, accessed through email. There forms also include questionnaires to explore current concerns, history, and needs, which are reviewed prior to your first session.
ESTABLISH: Initial sessions prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship and creating a safe, comfortable space for you to share your story. Therapy is a collaborative effort, where we set goals to measure your progress and celebrate your growth.
SHARE: We explore and discuss psychoeducation about mental health issues and . Psychoeducation forms a crucial component, providing insights and understanding about mental health and life stressors, addressing any associated stigma.
EMOTIONS: Understanding our own emotional language helps us to navigate our experiences and emotional needs. We explore current emotional processes, what has worked and what may need attuning. We’ll learn emotional regulation skills; such as grounding and mindfulness practices, and communication skills to assist in managing distress.
EXPERIENCES: Recognizing and understanding how past experiences influence our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors is key to developing healthier coping mechanisms and processing emotions effectively. Using the foundation of emotional regulation skills, we can explore the impact of our past and create deepening corrective experiences through processing and healing emotional wounds.
NURTURE: Reviewing your progress at intervals throughout treatment are part of therapy. This allows us to explore graduation from treatment upon achieving your intended outcomes. Maintenance sessions are integral to ensure sustained progress, and follow-up sessions will be available as needed for a refresher and ongoing support.
You're the expert of your own life and we are here as professionals to guide you through the healing process, leveraging your existing strengths and introducing new tools as needed. Commitment and consistency are vital for healing, and we'll work together to find scheduling options that align with your dedication to this journey.
