Get acquainted with you and your concerns. I will listen well to you as a unique person and focus on what you want to be better in your life. Then the homework begins. Things get better when you begin to apply new ideas and behaviors to your life.

I don't waste your time, but I do want to get a thorough understanding of your situation before I make action suggestions that will make things better. By the third or forth session, you should be able to tell that things are getting better for you.
