I know that meeting someone for the first time and talking about yourself may be uncomfortable for you.  I will do my best to put you at ease and make you comfortable. We will talk about what has brought you to therapy, your life to date and what your goals and expectations are. This is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and for you to decide if you would like to work with me.
