What about follow-up appointments?

Subsequent sessions are usually 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your needs and what we’re working on. Most of my new clients start out with scheduling sessions every 1 to 2 weeks, and we will decide your initial schedule based on the amount the support you need and the challenges you’re facing.

During each session, we’ll discuss what went well and what felt challenging — along with anything else that you identify as important to talk about — then set new mini goals and intentions to help you continue making progress toward positive change.

What if I have questions between appointments?Carrie Dennett, MPH, RDN, CD2026-06-01T09:03:33-07:00
