Structure:

• We’ll explore what’s feeling tender, stuck, or confusing for you.
• You’ll never be pushed to share more than you want to.

1. Therapeutic Direction

• We may identify key themes you want to work on.
• I’ll reflect back insights or emotional patterns I notice.

1. Closure & Grounding

• You’ll leave with a sense of clarity on what’s emerging, even if it’s messy.
• We'll check in about how the session felt and next steps.
