What is your typical process for working with clients?

The beginning of a session will usually start with recent changes, any progress, like conducting a check in. Depending on if there is anything that needs to urgently be addressed we will move into the focus of the session. How the focus of the session looks will depend on the client (i.e the style of intervention) and what type of treatment we are utilizing (EMDR, play therapy, TF-CBT, DBT etc...). Following the intervention of "focus of the session" we will conduct a "recap" or summary of the session and transition toward ending the session.
