Alicia@aliciaavila.com Evaluation: Our first few sessions will involve an evaluation of your needs. By the end of the evaluation period you will want to make your own assessment about whether you feel comfortable working with me. It is important that you are working with a therapist that is a good match for you as therapy involves a large commitment of time, money, and energy. If you are not satisfied with our initial connection or at any time in our treatment, I am happy to assist you with other referrals. Please do not hesitate to bring up anything that makes you feel uncomfortable or that you have questions about.
Appointments: Please come in a few minutes early so that you have an opportunity to focus on what you would like to get out of session. I begin and end sessions on time and it is to your advantage to come in early so that we do not miss any of our session time. If you are late, we will still end on time.
Each session is scheduled for 45 minutes unless you request a longer session at the time of scheduling.
For confidentiality and to maintain professional boundaries if we see each other outside of session I will not greet you or acknowledge knowing you. This is not meant to be rude and if you initiate a hello I will certainly respond. We will also avoid social media interactions. Let me know if you have questions or want to discuss this further.
