Your initial contact with Dr. Dalal begins with a brief phone consultation about your needs. This will give you a chance to talk about the problems that bring you to therapy and introduce you to how therapy works in his private practice.
At the initial visit, you will talk about your concerns in greater detail. This will include reviewing your history and your goals for treatment. The initial session will also allow you to get a sense of Dr. Dalal’s approach to therapy and the specific policies of his practice. If you do not feel that you are a good match, Dr. Dalal will gladly provide you with referrals for other psychologists in the community.
Following the initial session, Dr. Dalal will recommend weekly or biweekly sessions. The first few sessions will focus on helping you gain an insight into the development and maintenance of your concerns. With insight, treatment transitions into action. This can include applying newly learned skills and operating with a renewed sense of confidence.
