Understanding Major Life Shifts

Life transitions are significant periods of change that disrupt your normal routine and emotional equilibrium. These events can be developmental, like aging, or situational, like a divorce or relocation, requiring new ways of thinking and behaving to adapt successfully.

Initial Assessment and Goal Setting

Before your first visit, your therapist will reach out to you to arrange a consultation over the phone to conduct an initial assessment. This helps establish a connection with your therapist, as well as formulate treatment goals, so your initial session and ongoing therapy are as successful as possible.

Five filled stars in a row
“Patrick saved my marriage. First session in, he was able to connect with my husband — someone who says maybe 10 words a day. I’ve seen therapists since I was 16, and he is hands down one of THE best.”
