ALEXA ELKINGTON
Alexa Elkington, 702-228-0980, Marriage and Family Therapist, Home
Some clients are apprehensive about their first visit to a counselor, but you needn’t be. First of all, Alexa will do everything she can to make you feel comfortable and at ease.
On your first visit, she’ll ask you to come in about 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment to fill out some paperwork and get settled in. (If you’ll be using insurance, be sure to bring your insurance card with you.)
Next you’ll meet with Alexa in her office for your first therapy session. She’ll ask for the story of how you came to seek counseling. She’ll take some notes, ask some questions, and do a lot of listening.
This first visit will help her understand how to structure your therapy for optimum results. Her ultimate goal is to give you the knowledge and skills you need to solve your problems and have a healthier, happier relationship that will last a lifetime.
