The first person you may see when you come in the door ia Alana, our office girl.  She will give you a packet of information to fill out.  Your insurance card, if you have one, will be copied.   The paperwork  should take about fifteen minutes to complete.  We try to arrange our schedule so you never have to wait longer than ten minutes for your appointment.  Your time is just as important as mine, so please try to be on time and I shall do the same for you.  You session will last about 50 minutes.

At our first visit, I will do a lot of listening and you will be asked a couple questions to help us both decide what is the exact reason you came to visit today:  then we will try to set goals together.  I am a solution focused therapist.  I do not try to make therapy last longer than it needs to last to help you reach the goals you have set.  Most people find that we can help them decide what to do and what needs to change in just a few sessions.  There are some cases that take longer.
