The path
As with every journey, ours will have a start, middle and end. Here’s what a typical journey can look like.
1
Assessment
Every client relationship begins with an intake assessment, the purpose of which is to establish therapeutic rapport, identify presenting mental health concerns, and develop a treatment plan around your teen or family's unique strengths and needs. We'll start co-creating the safe environment that supports the hard work to come.
2
Ongoing Psychotherapy
Whether we're doing family therapy or I'm working with your teen for individual therapy, we'll meet regularly for psychotherapy. While treatment frequency varies by treatment need, most clients meet weekly during the active treatment phase. Sessions often involve activity-based components that directly tie to your goals. Our treatment plan is reviewed and updated at routine intervals to assess progress and modify approaches as needed.

Conclusion of Services
After meeting your goals, we titrate services in preparation to conclude our work together. We collaborate to develop a meaningful closing activity that represents the culmination of the therapeutic process. I encourage clients to consider including important people in their life, such as their families, to both celebrate their success and recognize their support.
