Guidance for New Patients

First off, congratulations on making the choice to come to counseling or to even just entertain the idea of doing so. This is the first step in what could be the journey of transformation, growth and healing that you have been hoping for! Whether this will be your first time working with a psychotherapist or if it is just your first time working with ARISE, not knowing what to expect can be anxiety provoking and confusing. This page has been created to give a brief overview of what you can expect when you decide to work with us.

**All counseling services are currently being conducted online**

Appointments

Setting up an appointment with us is easy. You can make it through our secure online portal, over the phone at 401-320-4458, or through email. Please do not hesitate to call or email with any questions or concerns you have about the process. We are more than happy to set up a time when we can speak to help you better understand what to expect when working with ARISE.

Beginning Our work Together

Sessions one and two

The first and second sessions will typically consist of us learning about your history, what is important to you, and what your initial goals are for treatment.

Session Three

In our third session, we will usually collaborate to design a treatment plan of goals that you have decided to work towards. Essentially, this is just a GPS of where we are going and how we plan to get there

Fourth session and beyond

From here on out we will be working towards your goals, while addressing what comes up in your daily life during this process. Treatment will look differently for everyone from this point on. We’ll work at the pace you are comfortable with as long as we are working towards positive change. Duration and frequency of treatment will be largely dependent upon your preferences and rate of progress.
