A first consultation should help you understand the process before asking you to commit to it. Think of it as a focused conversation about what you want help with and whether the relationship feels like a good fit.
You do not need the perfect explanation
It is completely normal to arrive with a situation that feels messy or difficult to describe. Start with what you notice most and what you would like to feel different. The details can become clearer during the conversation.
Bring your questions
Ask about the approach, timing, fees, expectations, and anything else that would help you feel comfortable making a decision.
