Counseling and Psychological Services of the Upstate
Subsequent Sessions
While the initial session will likely be more structured with the therapist posing questions, subsequent sessions often focus on what you feel is most important to address. The focus will likely be related to your initial concerns.
Some clients prefer relatively more structure, or alternately, more flexibility so we will collaboratively determine the right mix for you. You goals will help determine the treatment approach and the degree of structure in our sessions.
In addition, a person’s faith/spirituality, sexual orientation, gender identity, cultural background or other aspects of identity are often critical to the work. What therapy looks like depends quite a bit on your unique blend of worldview, values, needs, and goals.
I will ask for your feedback, but I also encourage you to provide it as we work together.
We will regularly monitor your goals and our progress towards them to see if we are on track or if changes to our approach need to be made.
