The initial intake is 60 minutes and is largely history and information gathering and setting your goals for  treatment. Sessions following are typically 53 minutes long.

You typically begin meeting with your therapist weekly to allow time to establish a relationship necessary to do the work of therapy. You and your therapist will work together to determine when to transition to biweekly or monthly meetings. We are a client-centered practice, meaning we encourage sessions to focus on client-identified areas of growth and need.
