Finding the right therapist is key to a successful therapy experience. I encourage you to reach out to two or three therapists to find the approach and connection that feels right for you. You can schedule a free 15 minute consultation with me, where you can ask any questions you may have and get a feel for my style and approach. This initial conversation is a great opportunity for us to discuss your needs and see if we are a good fit. Remember, the most important part of your therapy is your comfort and trust in your therapist, and this consultation is designed to start building that foundation. Feel free to contact Mindbridge Wellness today to set up your complimentary consultation.

Your first session is primarily about understanding your needs and history. It is also an opportunity for us to build rapport. We'll talk about what brought you to therapy, what you hope to achieve, and any reservations or concerns you may have about the therapy process.  Together, we will determine the best approach and structure to support you with your goals. 

For most clients, regular weekly sessions are beneficial, especially in the beginning. However, the ideal frequency of your therapy sessions will be determined based on your specific situation and therapeutic goals. This is something we'll discuss in detail and revisit regularly to ensure it suits your progress. 

Each therapy session at Mindbridge Wellness typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your individual needs and the specific goals for our session. We’ll determine the ideal session length together to ensure you receive the most benefit from your therapy.
