Read MoreTherapy is about you, so be SMART. We want to set goals that are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-Bound. Establishing goals in this way encourages you to maintain realistic expectations. We work together to narrow down what you want to get out of therapy, evaluate if we are moving towards those goals, and reach them in a timely fashion. Goals may even change during the course of therapy, so they will be re-evaluated periodically. Making goals is the first step towards the change you want to see!
Without hope, it can seem impossible to get through difficult times in life. Many people believe that one session in therapy will solve all of their problems. However, the therapist and client must build a relationship. The therapist needs to understand the context of the problem you are facing. Feeling understood and connected to your therapist builds trust. Trust leads to increased levels of hope and successful outcomes in therapy overall. We all need hope and we want to help you find it.
It is almost certain that one of your reasons for considering therapy is to experience some level of change in your life. After your first couple of sessions, you may learn new coping skills and gain insights about your thoughts and behaviors. These are indications that you are either heading towards meeting your goals or some have already been accomplished. Our objective is to help you set goals that will encourage hope for the future and bring about the change you desire for your life.
