Simply put, Quality Time is undivided attention, meaningful interaction, a valued experience. In today’s distracted, overstimulated world, being seen, heard and understood is important for mental health and recovery.
What is Quality Time?
It all starts with reaching out. Request a free phone consultation to talk about your needs and the Quality Time approach to mental health.
After consultation…
…we will schedule your first in-person or telehealth visit. Before the first appointment you will receive a link to create an online patient account with all the required forms.
For your first visit…
…make sure to complete the online forms ahead of time and arrive a few minutes early. Then find a comfortable spot in the lobby to relax with some coffee, tea or water. There is no need to check in, I will find you as soon as I’m available.
We’ll walk down this hallway towards my office.
Feel free to sit down on the sofa and we will get started. Most sessions last between 45 - 55 minutes but the first one can take slightly longer to make sure I have all the information I need.
After your intake, we will co-create an individualized treatment plan including your own goals and how we can measure success together. Building rapport and practicing compassion as I get to know you are a part of the process. The length of therapy varies a lot across clients with some feeling they got what they needed after a few months, and others find value and stability for longer-term work on a maintenance level. When you have gained what you need from our work together, we complete a therapy discharge. This is administrative for managing my files, and your case can be re-opened in the future if you would like to return.
