Psychotherapy is an intervention aimed at increasing your psychosocial well being. Therapy is a professional relationship between client and therapist designed to alleviate turmoil or distress. The goal of therapy is to help you identify and cope more effectively with problems in your daily life.
The initial meeting will include a thorough review of problems and issues you are experiencing, i.e., mood swings, sleep, appetite, energy level, weight, concentration, memory, interest in activities, feelings of anxiety or panic, change in behavior, interpersonal difficulties, work or home life, substance use, or sense of self. Another area typically addressed is past experiences of difficulty, including functioning at work or school, relationships and family. We treat a wide range of problems and work with you to set goals for your therapy.
