The first session allows time for us to get to know each other and to review your intake form. I recommend that you read all the points in this tab (and check out the videos in the Resources tab) before we meet, as your concerns may be addressed there.

We’ll meet at regular intervals (typically weekly or biweekly), with the aim of addressing your long term goals. Remember, though, that each session will focus on what shows up in the moment. These are the entry points that allow us to access deeper, more complex trauma work.

SE is a body-oriented approach. If you’ve ever had therapies such as CBT or DBT you’ll find it quite different.
To better understand what SE sessions are like, please watch the video called What to Expect in an SE Session, found under the Resources tab.

Resolving trauma isn’t a quick fix. It requires time and a nuanced approach to be effective.
Typically I work with clients for a minimum of 6 months. More complex trauma may require a year or more.
I encourage folks to commit to weekly appointments for the first 6 sessions, after which biweekly sessions may be appropriate.
As we resolve long-standing issues, monthly maintenance sessions may be an option we can explore.
