“The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.”
Bilbo then adds, “It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out of your door. You step into the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to.”- Tolkien, J.R.R. (2004). The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Houghton Mifflin. (Original work published 1954)

Free 15 Minute Consultation:
A free 15-minute therapy consultation phone call is a brief, no-cost introductory session designed to help you and a licensed therapist discuss your needs, goals, and concerns. During the call, you can explore whether the therapist’s approach is a good fit, ask questions about their practice, and determine next steps for your mental health journey—all in a confidential, supportive environment. Schedule yours today to take the first step toward personalized care.
Intake Appointments (one time appointment):
A therapy intake appointment is an initial session, typically 45-60 minutes, where a licensed therapist gathers essential information to tailor your treatment. The therapist will discuss your mental health history, current concerns, goals, and lifestyle factors. You’ll explore their therapeutic approach, establish rapport, and outline a personalized plan for future sessions. This confidential meeting sets the foundation for your therapeutic journey, ensuring a supportive and effective path forward.
Individual Therapy Sessions:
Individual therapy appointments are one-on-one sessions, typically 45-60 minutes, where you work with a licensed therapist to address personal challenges, emotions, or goals. Tailored to your needs, these sessions may involve exploring thoughts, behaviors, or past experiences, using evidence-based techniques like Brainspotting, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), CBT, DBT, or Mindfulness. The therapist provides a safe, confidential space to foster growth, self-awareness, and coping strategies, with progress tracked over time to support your mental health journey.
