What should a new client know about working with you?

Therapy with me is a collaborative, grounded journey built on compassion and practical support. You can expect a warm, nonjudgmental space where your experiences are met with deep understanding rather than clinical detachment. Together, we will focus on building actionable emotional regulation skills, identifying and challenging unhelpful thought patterns, strengthening your relationships, and navigating life's transitions with greater confidence. Whether you are adjusting to postpartum changes, dealing with anxiety or depression, or seeking a deeper sense of self-awareness, we will always move at a pace that feels safe, respectful, and entirely tailored to your unique goals.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Our work together typically begins with an initial intake to explore what brings you to therapy, map out your history, and clarify your goals. From there, early sessions focus on building rapport, establishing emotional safety, and identifying immediate areas of support or relief. As we progress, our ongoing sessions blend open reflection with structured, evidence-based tools from DBT and CBT. We will collaboratively review your experiences, track patterns or challenges that came up during your week, and practice practical skills for emotional regulation or interpersonal communication. Each session flows at a flexible, respectful pace tailored to your needs, ensuring you leave with actionable insights and steady support for your growth.
