What should a new client know about working with you?
My methodology is to provide psychoeducation and tools to begin managing challenges while allowing to process and heal. No journey is ever the same; however the common ground is deserving the opportunity to heal and live a life of freedom. I actively integrate wellness practices in our sessions, and use a variety of visual and audio tools to support your work.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Once you schedule an appointment, our team will contact you to gather any necessary information, create your secure client portal account, and review important details about our practice, including scheduling and cancellation policies.
During your first session, we strive to create a comfortable and calming environment. You will be welcomed with a warm towel infused with essential oils to help you relax and settle into the space. We will then complete a comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment and any relevant clinical screening tools to better understand your experiences, strengths, and current concerns. This information helps us develop an accurate diagnosis and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals. We will also discuss your commitment to the therapeutic process and review the various treatment modalities available, ensuring that together we choose the approach that best supports your journey toward healing and wellness.

It was a rocky start but my therapist rectified it.

She didn't show up for the appointment.
January 10, 2026Silvia M.Verified patient
Doctor was a NO SHOW for our second session. I never heard from her or her office about her missing our appointment. I called to inform her that I was there and she was not. It’s very unprofessional to just not call back at all. I was still charged for the second session which she never showed up to. I’m very unpleased and disappointed. I at least expected a phone call with an explanation. It’s been 2 and a half weeks now and still no response.

She explained very well how the process works. She also explain exactly what she does and what she can do to help. She listens carefully and is a great listener.

Everything about my experience with the actual provider was wonderful (so far, after first visit.) Zocdoc however- going on 3 times, I was given different "in network" providers each time (and the the first few ended up not being) then this appointment was scheduled on Zocdoc without consulting the provider's schedule, so she called me yesterday with a new time, then I got an automated call this morning, and an email, with yet a different time- but when I called her, we were able to stick with the time we discussed- so again- she has been great, but all the automated stuff needs a LOT of work.
