What should a new client know about working with you?
Many people reach a point where they feel weighed down by depression, anxiety, low self-worth, or a persistent lack of direction. These patterns often don’t resolve on their own, no matter how hard you push yourself. If you find that you’re tired of trying to hold everything together by sheer willpower, you’re not alone—and you do not have to keep doing this without support.
I specialize in working with adults who are ready to understand themselves more honestly and begin building a steadier internal foundation. My work is grounded in established, research-supported approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness practices, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. You can expect our early work to be clear, structured, and purposeful: we identify what’s happening, why it’s happening, and what steps will actually move you forward, rather than endlessly circling the same frustrations.
My practice is entirely online, providing privacy and flexibility. There is no commute and no waiting room, just a secure, consistent space where you can speak openly and without distraction. For many of my clients, this ease of access removes a significant barrier to showing up fully in the therapeutic process.
I was drawn to this work because I believe strongly in the importance of facing challenges directly, rather than avoiding them or pretending they don’t exist. Therapy is not about “fixing” you—it’s about understanding your patterns, reclaiming your strengths, and strengthening the parts of you that have been worn down over time. You will be actively involved in setting your goals. We will examine where you have succeeded before and build on those capabilities in a deliberate, strategic way.
If you are ready to stop going through the motions and start doing the real work of healing and rebuilding, I am here to guide you through that process with clarity, honesty, and respect.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit
for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be
that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you
and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals
and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you
will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear
understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to
trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also
important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important
to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as
exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be
willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different
techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important
to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
