Free Consultation A therapeutic relationship is a special one in which you’ll be working together closely to explore and resolve emotional issues. Because successful outcomes are predicated on trust and rapport, this decision should never be rushed. You're welcome to have a free consultation with me, on the phone or at my office. The purpose of a consultation, which is usually 20-30 minutes and is not a psychotherapy session, is for you to ask questions about what's on your mind in regard to therapy in general, my approach in particular, and to get a sense of what it would be like to work together. You can learn more on the subject by reading my article published in the Pasadena Weekly - “Clicking with your therapist” –link.
