GETTING STARTED
Ready to get started? I am so excited to meet you.
Our first step is setting up an initial appointment. Please fill out the consultation form below and I will reach out to schedule an Initial phone consultation – complimentary, free (15 minutes)
If we are a good fit for one another and decide to proceed forward, we will set up an initial appointment during our call. You will then be granted access to your client portal where you will find your intake questionnaire and where you can upload and download documents.[/vc_column_text][us_btn label=”NEW CLIENT CONSULTATION” link_type=”onclick” onclick_code=”document.getElementsByClassName(‘ipt-fsqm-popup-anchor’)`{`0`}`.click();return false;” style=”2″ align=”center”][us_separator size=”custom” height=”10px”][us_btn label=”EXISTING CLIENT LOGIN” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fgrowingkindminds.clientsecure.me%2F|target:_blank” style=”2″ align=”center”][vc_column_text]
How will our first appointment look?
Initial appointment – (60 minutes)
When we first meet, we will need to decide if you feel comfortable working with me and whether I feel I can be helpful to you. Sometimes, one meeting is not enough, and it can take a few sessions to know for sure. If you decide that we are not a good fit, I won’t take it personally. It is an essential part of therapy to have a therapist with whom you feel you connect. If that person is not me then I can help you find another therapist. Also, if I think that someone else can be more helpful to you, I will refer you to someone who would better fit your needs and goals. It’s important to find the therapeutic relationship that is best for you.
For Parents
The first appointment is usually parents only. Before your appointment, I will make sure to review all your documentation, including any assessments, IEP’s, 504 Plans, etc. The meeting will take anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half. Here we will discuss what your child is coming to therapy for, goals, and areas of struggle. Along with family history.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
