What should a new client know about working with you?

I offer a safe space where you can show up as your authentic self. Using a holistic, compassionate, and collaborative approach, I will help you gain insight, identify recurring maladaptive patterns, and realign your identity with your vision for life.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I will guide you every step of the way -- whether it's your first time in therapy or returning after some time off. We will start with a complimentary 15-minute phone call to see if we may be a good fit. If we are not, I will help you find someone who may be. If we decide to move forward, then we will cover logistics, including fees, and any questions you may have.
