What should a new client know about working with you?

Starting therapy is a courageous step, and I’m honored to be part of your journey. When we work together, you can expect a supportive, respectful, and collaborative environment. I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust, openness, and mutual understanding. I take a client-centered approach, meaning your voice, values, and goals are at the core of our work. I’m not here to judge or “fix” you—I’m here to help you make sense of what you're experiencing, explore meaningful change, and equip you with tools to feel more empowered in your life. I believe in honesty, humor when appropriate, and holding space for both the struggles and the strengths that make you who you are. Some sessions may be focused on processing emotions, while others may involve practical strategies or guided reflection. Progress looks different for everyone, and we’ll move at a pace that feels safe and manageable for you. If you're unsure where to start, that's completely okay—just showing up is enough. I’m here to walk with you, not ahead of you.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

When we begin working together, my first priority is to get to know you—your story, strengths, challenges, and what brought you to therapy. Our initial sessions are focused on building rapport, gathering background information, and identifying your goals for therapy. This gives us a foundation for creating a plan that’s tailored to your needs. As therapy progresses, our work may involve exploring thought patterns, emotional responses, relationship dynamics, or past experiences that are impacting your current life. I use a blend of evidence-based approaches—such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies—depending on what resonates best with you. Throughout our time together, therapy remains collaborative. I’ll regularly check in about what’s working (and what’s not), adjusting our approach as needed. I strive to create a space that feels both grounded and growth-oriented, where you can reflect, gain insight, and develop practical skills to navigate life more effectively. Whether you're looking for short-term support or long-term personal growth, we’ll move at a pace that honors your comfort and goals.
