What to Expect in Your First Virtual Therapy Session

Starting therapy can feel intimidating — especially when it’s online. But knowing what to expect can help ease your mind.

Here’s how it works:
Once you schedule your first session, you’ll receive simple intake forms to complete beforehand. On the day of, you’ll click a secure link to join our video call — no downloads or special tech required.

During our first session, we’ll:

  • Talk about what brings you to therapy

  • Go over any questions or concerns you have

  • Begin setting gentle goals together

  • Take things at your pace — there’s no pressure to “open up” right away

What to bring:
Just yourself, a quiet space, and maybe a notebook. You’re welcome to show up as you are — camera on or off, cozy clothes, messy bun — it’s your time.

Virtual therapy is real therapy.
It’s safe, confidential, and deeply effective — all from the comfort of your space. You’re not alone in this, and you don’t have to have it all figured out to begin.
