If you’re new to therapy, it’s completely normal to feel unsure. At CALM, we’re here to make the process as comfortable and welcoming as possible. Here’s what you can expect during your sessions:

• Your First Session

  • In the first session, we’ll get to know you by discussing what brought you to therapy and your goals. It’s a time to share your concerns, and we’ll work together to create a plan that fits your needs.

• Therapy Sessions

  • Each session is an opportunity to talk openly with your therapist. They’ll listen, ask questions, and introduce helpful techniques like mindfulness, coping strategies, and problem-solving tools. We may also give you simple exercises to practice outside of therapy.

• Confidential & Empowering

  • Your privacy is our priority. What you share in therapy stays confidential, except in situations of serious risk. You are always in control of your journey, and we encourage you to ask questions or express concerns at any time.

• Family Involvement

  • For youth and young adults, we can involve family or guardians when appropriate to build a supportive environment for everyone.

• Ongoing Support

  • As you continue, you’ll build new skills and feel more confident in facing life’s challenges. Therapy is a process, and we’ll be with you every step of the way.

  • We understand taking the first step can be tough, but we’re here to guide you with respect, compassion, and support. You don’t have to do this alone—let’s work together to help you heal and grow.
