“Ahneishia is the first therapist that I've hade who makes me feel like I can truly say how I feel no matter how outlandish it may sound in my own head. I really appreciate her validation of my feelings while still providing alternative ways to think about my situations. I leave our sessions feeling like we actually got somewhere and I learned something rather than just talking for the sake of talking. 10/10!”

What is your typical process for working with clients?
To get to know you better and how I can best service your needs, I offer a free 15-minute consultation call. If we both feel we are a good fit to walk together in your journey towards healing and wholeness, we schedule your intial intake session, which lasts 90 minutes to allow time for us to unpack your history and your needs in therapy. From there we continue in the assessment phase with weekly 50-minute sessions for a couple of weeks, before we collaboratively engage in setting your goals for your time in therapy. The remainder of sessions are spent supporting your processing and progress towards those goals week by week until your goals have been met and you have gotten what you needed from treatment. In meeting your treatment goals, you may see sustained evidenced improvements in your emotional state, thought patterns, self esteem, life functioning, work satisfaction, and the overall health of your relationships.
