What can I expect at my first appointment?
Although everyone’s first visit can vary, there are certain things that we remain consistent with:
1. Review forms and most importantly your rights as a patient. As practitioner, we are held to ethical standards. You will complete forms before your first session- privacy, payment, and policies, as well as a brief survey so we can know a little about what you brings in. These forms have your information on them but most importantly are a commitment from our therapists. All therapists are bound by and committed to maintaining our felids highest ethical and professional standards.
2. Discuss what brought you here. Sometimes this reason can change. Sometimes we learn more about the reason as we work together. We continue to work with you so do not think that we will cover everything the first time we meet.
3. What are your goals? Just like tracking weight loss, we will want to track your progress. Along with tracking progress we will want to track setbacks and the things that you have learned along the way to become resilient. I will provide you with some tools to track your progress. Nothing overwhelming… just something to keep us on track.
