Talking to the therapist before your first session is not part of the service that we offer, as meeting face-to-face is really the best way to assess the fit. During the first session, you will get to know your therapist.  If for whatever reason you do not feel that it’s a good fit, we’d be happy to switch you to another member of our team, no hard feelings. If you have specific questions regarding therapy, one of our receptionists would be happy to answer them. Additionally, you can check out the therapist’s profile online and read client recommendations here: https://www-staging.blakepsychology.com/psychologists/
