Frequently asked questions

  • Your first session at Driftwood Counseling in Brookfield, WI, lasts about 50-55 minutes. I’ll ask questions to better understand your background, goals, and what brought you to therapy. Future sessions tend to be more conversational and focused on what feels most important to you.

  • It depends! I generally recommend meeting once a week for the first month as we establish our relationship and build momentum, but scheduling is flexible. We’ll decide together what feels sustainable and supportive!

  • Most people (myself included!) use the terms interchangeably. Some consider counseling to be shorter-term and more solution-focused, while therapy may be longer-term and explore deeper emotional patterns. I’m trained in both and will tailor our sessions to meet your needs.

  • That’s completely okay! I want you to find the right therapist for you. If you decide to work with someone else, I’m happy to provide referrals or help you connect with another provider.

  • For any in-person counseling sessions the office address is: 333 Bishops Way, Suite 104, Brookfield, WI 53005.
