If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like you're carrying more than your share, you're not alone, and you don’t have to navigate it all by yourself.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I will typically reach out to my clients via telephone prior to their appointment to walk them through the intake paperwork and to hear more about what they are looking to gain or achieve from therapy. The first session is typically the intake session in which I ask for a general overview of your biopsychosocial history, sessions following can either be guided by myself or by anything the client would like to explore that week.
