We check on how you are doing today and since our previous session with a brief mood scale. I think of this like getting your vitals taken when you go to your physician's office.
We check on how homework/goals/action items from last session went. We almost always have homework or goals to work on between sessions since it's been shown to significantly improve therapy outcomes.
We set a topic for the session together. We will always work on something that you choose. If you're not sure where to even start, I provide guidance to help
I provide empathy and support, checking-in ensure you feel 100% heard and understood before getting to work on any techniques for change
We flexibly and creatively use a variety of evidence-based techniques and methods to help you bring about change or acceptance of the problem you're wanting help with
Around 15 minutes until the end of the session, we start planning homework/goals/action items for the next week. We make sure the homework feels doable, makes sense to you, and feels very relevant to what you're dealing with
We discuss your takeaways from the session. Writing down your takeaways helps solidify your memory of what you found useful from our session.
We discuss feedback from you on how you think our session went and what could be improved. We do this verbally and through a very brief therapy session rating form at the end of every session. Research shows that asking for feedback is connected to better results - even when the feedback is critical or negative!

This work is very fun, challenging, and doesn't require another person to be present in the session with you.
