Beginning Therapy

Beginning your therapeutic journey for the first time, or with a new provider can be a challenging process. It is my goal to help you initiate counseling services in a way that feels as comfortable and hopeful as possible. I work closely with the team at Midwest Psych Center to complete initial registration and scheduling efficiently and respectfully.

Assessment

The initial appointment is an Assessment Session. At this meeting we will discuss what brings you to counseling and the goals you have for therapy. I will ask some questions to help me better understand your needs, experiences, and priorities.

Treatment Plan

I will explain to you difference options for therapy including the different types of therapy I believe will serve you best. We will work together to create a treatment plan based on your goals and priorities. This plan provides the framework for our sessions and will guide how we use our time together.

Confidentiality

I value the trust of my clients and am honored by your confidence. Your privacy is of the utmost importance. Not only are there laws, rules and policies to protect confidentiality in the therapeutic process, it is also one of my top priorities. I work to make my office a space where you can be authentic and speak freely.

Referrals

New clients may self-refer by calling Midwest Psych Center at 513-217-5221.
Providers may contact the office by phone or fax referrals to 513-217-6221.
There will be an initial screening process to confirm our practice is a good fit, equipped to meet your needs, and the appropriate level of care.
