Thank you for taking a few moments to learn more about the process of beginning therapy at SeaPsych. The information below is designed to give you a sense of what to expect in your sessions with Dr. Behling, and how to establish initial contact with him to begin therapy.

During our first meeting I will gather a lot of information about you, your life experiences, your current struggles, and your goals for therapy. This will help me determine the most appropriate approach to therapy and whether I have the expertise to help you. I encourage you to ask questions of me during this time to make sure you feel I am the right person to help you. Your comfort and feeling of “fit” is very important. If either of us feel we are not a good fit, I will provide you with a referral to a provider who I think may be able to help.
Given that change is most likely to occur when there is consistent follow-up and problem solving, I typically meet with clients weekly until the situation or reason for seeking therapy has noticeably improved, at which point we may move to an every-other-week or as-needed cadence. I focus on interventions that are evidence-based, meaning that there is research showing that they are effective at promoting change and improvement, and I collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that integrates these effective techniques with one's unique goals, preferences and strengths. While no therapist can guarantee the success of therapy, I find that goals are best achieved when the therapist and client are working together.
