首次会谈与目标设定

Welcome, I'm Dr. Miller. Thank you for coming in today. To start, could you tell me a little bit about what brings you here?

Hello, Dr. Miller. Well, lately I've been feeling overwhelmed and extremely stressed at work. It's really affecting my sleep and concentration.

I understand. Stress and sleep are common concerns. Could you elaborate a bit on how long you've been experiencing these feelings and if anything specific has triggered them?

It's been about three months now. We had a major project launch, and the workload just shot up. I've always been good at managing stress, but this feels different. I'm just constantly on edge.

Thank you for sharing that. It sounds like a significant shift in your work-life balance. Based on what you've described, what would you hope to achieve from our sessions together?

I really want to learn how to cope with work stress better and get my sleep back on track. Maybe find some strategies to prevent this from happening again. I just want to feel like myself again.

Those are very clear and actionable goals. We can definitely work on stress management techniques, improving sleep hygiene, and building resilience. How does that sound as a starting point for our therapy goals?

That sounds perfect, Dr. Miller. I'm ready to learn and make these changes.
