During the first meeting, we begin by gathering background information regarding your reason for referral, family history, and relationship history.  While some information gathered may not be relevant to your reasons for seeking treatment, a complete history will help us get to know you better, and possibly help us discover patterns that could be impacting your current struggles.  Together, we will collaborate on a plan for treatment, and goals to obtain.

If we will be working with your child, the first meeting will be with the parent(s) or caretaker to gather background information, and give you a place to share information you might not want to share with your child present.  The following sessions will be with your child, but we encourage parents and caretakers to remain in contact with us to share information and progress updates.
