I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, substance use or past trauma. During our initial session I will gather history information in order to better understand who you are. I will then ask what your goals are and come up with a treatment plan accordingly. I usually see you weekly or bi-weekly, whatever works best with your schedule.
