Welcome. I'm grateful you're here, and that you're considering sharing your story with me. Maybe you're looking for therapy because you have had terrible things happen to you, and life has never looked the same again. You have nightmares, and racing thoughts. You can't seem to relax, no matter what you do. Your life is in a holding pattern, while everyone around you seems to be moving forward at lightning speed. You're feeling frantic, and now you're scrolling here considering taking the first step into something new and unknown. Or, you've had a major loss: a miscarriage, a stillbirth, or the death of your child. Your entire world has been rocked to its core, and you feel like some days you can't even breathe. You've had the thought, "if I have to hear "there's a reason for everything" one more time from some well-meaning person, I might snap." Every event in our lives, even the ones we desperately wish had never happened, contribute to our grit and resiliency. At Gift of Grit Counseling LLC, we know you may feel crushed now, but with time and support, your feelings can shift. Let's get you to a place of clarity, contentment, and acceptance, even if the future is different than the one you once dreamed about. Are you ready to feel less alone? Please contact me so we can set up a time to connect. The free consultation is a way for us to get to know each other better and make sure we are a good fit. After all, you're investing a lot of time, money and tears into this therapy thing, so you should feel completely comfortable moving forward in working with me! What to Expect During Your Free Consultation Taking the first step toward therapy can feel like a big leap, and I want you to feel completely comfortable and informed. That’s why I offer a free consultation—a space for us to connect and explore whether working together feels like the right fit. Here’s how our conversation will go: A Warm Welcome I’ll start by introducing myself and sharing a little about how I work, so you can get a feel for my approach to therapy. Your Story You’ll have the opportunity to share as much or as little about your current challenges as you feel comfortable. This is your time, and there’s no pressure to dive too deep. Goals and Hopes We’ll discuss what you’re hoping to achieve in therapy. This can help us both see if my approach aligns with your needs. Your Questions Answered This is your chance to ask anything that’s on your mind! Questions You Might Consider Asking Here are a few ideas to help you feel confident about moving forward: What’s your experience working with people who have challenges like mine? How will we track progress in therapy? What should I expect from a typical session? What approaches or techniques do you use? What are your thoughts on the timeline for seeing results? Your Next Step By the end of our conversation, you’ll have a better sense of whether I’m the right therapist for you—and I’ll answer any lingering questions to help you feel ready to take the next step.
