FAQs - DIVING BELL THERAPY

What can I expect during my first session?

The first session, often called the intake session, is all about gathering information. We will spend about an hour discussing everything from your current living situation, eating/sleep habits, medication history, to your current problems. I like to get a very clear picture of what your life looks like so we can work on creating goals that fit your needs.

You may not feel 100% safe to tell me all your deep dark secrets and that's okay; my priority is that you feel comfortable.

How long does therapy typically last?

My sessions are typically 53-55min. I am happy to be flexible with scheduling, if needed, but I also offer standing appointments to those who can commit to a regular day and time. I offer weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly session schedules.

I see some clients for a few months and some for a few years depending upon the treatment goals.
