Many clients come to therapy feeling really stuck. They often tell Dr. de Jong that no matter how many positive changes they've made it still feels like, deep inside, something's not quite right. Over time, he'll help you make you own conscious decisions about courses of action and how to resolve the problems that brought you to therapy. During the first session, he'll get an idea about where you want to go with your life, the types of things you've tried using to fix the problem and where you're at right now. After the initial meeting, he may be giving you things to do on your own between sessions, like listening to CD's, thinking about what you're thinking about or perhaps recording what you've experienced during your day.
A big part of making progress in therapy is having a good client/therapist relationship, so he encourages you to call him so you can discuss your situation before meeting.
