✨ Behind the Scenes of an Intake Session (Part 1 of 6)

Ever wonder why therapists ask the questions they do during an intake session? In this 6-part series, I take you behind the scenes and talk through what’s happening in my mind as a licensed psychologist when I meet with a client for the first time.

In this series, I discuss:
• What psychosomatic symptoms can tell us
• How diagnosis and treatment planning work
• Why insurance influences certain decisions
• When I focus on the present (managing symptoms) vs. the past (root causes)
• How a diagnosis and treatment plan can evolve as I get to know a client better
• What it means to be proactive in your own treatment
• Cultural factors that may influence diagnosis
• When getting a second opinion from another provider may be helpful

My goal with this series is to help you feel informed, empowered, and more prepared to navigate therapy—whether you’re a first-timer, a returning client, or simply curious about what happens behind the scenes.

If you have questions about intake sessions, psychosomatic symptoms, or the therapy process, feel free to drop them in the comments. I’d love to hear from you.
