Question 2

What should I expect on my first session?

Accepted Answer

The first counseling session is called an "intake session".  Upon arrival to the office, you will be asked to fill out a demographic form, as well as sign forms related to: (1) confidentiality, (2) your rights and responsibilities as a client, and (3) your financial responsibility agreement.  Please bring a copy of your insurance card and driver's license, so that a copy can be made for your file.  
 
After this, you'll meet with your assigned therapist, and he/she will ask you questions regarding:
 
(1) why you have sought out counseling
(2) how he/she can best support you at this time
(3) your goals and/or hopes for your counseling experience
(4) background information about yourself to obtain a better understanding of who you are, where you've come from, and where you hope to be.
 
Minors are required to have a legal guardian present for the initial session.
