What should a new client know about working with you?

I can't tell you how many times I have heard from my clients "I never thought of it that way". I have a knack for combining humor, introspection, and real life examples to make the situation relevant and easier to process. Almost every client leaves sessions felling better than before the session started.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I like to start off by finding out the WHY you are seeking services. Once this is established we need to make sure we are on the same page with understanding your history. My intakes are very through and involve focusing on the past, present, and even the future. After the intake has been complied, and the goal for your treatment has been solidified, we will bound a road map/treatment plan to help lay the road toward our journey to your happiness.
