There’s no pressure to commit—just a friendly chat to see if it feels like a good fit.

Question 2

Initial Consultation

Accepted Answer

The initial assessment is required for all new clients starting with Lively Lifestyles Psychology.​ This first session is a clinical interview where we’ll explore things like your background, life experiences, relationships, and what’s brought you here. It’s a chance for us to get a full picture of who you are and how your journey has shaped you. By understanding your story, we can tailor support to your needs and work together to identify the goals that matter most to you.

After the first session, your clinician creates a case formulation & a treatment plan to help guide the following sessions.
