What should a new client know about working with you?

When you begin working with me, you can expect a collaborative and straightforward approach. I aim to create a space where you feel comfortable being honest, while also feeling supported and challenged in a productive way. Therapy with me is not just about talking through problems. It is about understanding patterns, building insight, and developing practical tools you can use in your everyday life. In our early sessions, I focus on getting to know you, your history, what brings you in, and what you want to change. From there, we set clear goals together. I tend to be active and engaged in sessions. I ask thoughtful questions, offer feedback, and help you connect the dots between past experiences and current behaviors. Clients often tell me they appreciate having both a steady, nonjudgmental presence and concrete strategies to work on between sessions. My goal is for you to leave therapy not just feeling heard, but feeling more equipped and confident moving forward.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My process begins with getting a clear understanding of what brings you to therapy and what you hope to change. In our first few sessions, I focus on learning about your history, current stressors, relationships, and any patterns that may be contributing to how you’re feeling. Together, we identify specific goals so our work has direction and purpose. From there, sessions typically combine insight and practical skill-building. We explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in a structured way, while also developing tools you can apply between sessions. Depending on your needs, this may include cognitive behavioral strategies, emotional regulation skills, communication techniques, or deeper exploration of long-standing patterns. As therapy progresses, we regularly check in on your goals and adjust as needed. My aim is to help you build greater self-awareness, resilience, and confidence so that over time you feel more capable of handling challenges independently.
