During your session, I will ask you to say what you’re thinking, regardless of how trivial or off-topic it may seem. Therapists over the years have found that this method helps people to discover naturally what’s really on their mind. While I will emphasize exploring your current life experiences, this will be done in the context of understanding what in your past might have contributed to your current problems. It is very important to me to create an environment that makes you feel safe and open to express your thoughts and feelings. I consider therapy a conversation. While you do most of the talking, I will take part in the discussion. You know yourself, and I understand the psychology of people. By combining our knowledge and working together we can help you achieve what you want out of life.

Typically you would come to therapy on a weekly basis. Each session lasts 50 minutes. It is very difficult to predict how long you’ll want to stay in therapy. Depending on the problem, we might find that it can be resolved within a short time. On the other hand, you might decide that the nature of your concerns will need more time to be resolved.
