What should a new client know about working with you?
My approach is simple: I want you to feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself. In our first session, we’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you’re hoping to work on, and what support might be most helpful for you. We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable and work together to develop practical tools that fit your life and your goals.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
We’ll start by getting to know each other and talking about what you’re currently experiencing and what you would like to work on. From there, we’ll work together to identify your goals and develop strategies that feel realistic and meaningful to you. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and supported throughout the process.
