What should a new client know about working with you?

I specialize in working with people who are used to being the strong ones—the dependable ones others lean on. While that role can be rewarding, I understand it can also be exhausting. If you’ve been putting yourself last for far too long, therapy with me is a space where you finally get to come first. My style is warm and honest—the kind of support that listens without judgment but also gently challenges you when you feel stuck.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and practical tools you can actually use outside of our sessions. Think of therapy with me as a reset. There’s no pressure to have it all figured out or to keep up appearances—just a space to pause and focus on yourself. Please Note: This helps ensure I'm the right fit for your needs and that our practice can best support you. Please reach out after booking to schedule your consult — I look forward to connecting with you soon!
