What should a new client know about working with you?
I strive to create a safe, affirming space where you can feel seen, understood, and empowered. I view therapy as a collaborative process you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to support your growth, insight, and healing. Whether you are seeking therapy, a psychological evaluation, or both, I take the time to listen carefully
and tailor my approach to your unique needs and goals. I also partner with families to foster stronger communication, improve relationships, and support overall well-being at home and in school.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
When working with clients, I begin with a comprehensive intake session where we explore your history, current concerns, and what you hope to gain from therapy or evaluation. From there, I work collaboratively with you to set clear, meaningful goals. My therapeutic approach is grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic principles, tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual and family.
In a typical therapy session, we may discuss your current experiences, explore patterns or challenges, and develop tools for coping and growth. Sessions are supportive, collaborative, and focused on building insight and emotional well-being. If you are coming in for a psychological evaluation, sessions may include interviews, questionnaires, and standardized testing to assess emotional, behavioral, or cognitive functioning. After the assessment process, I provide a detailed report along with personalized feedback to help you or your child better understand the results and how
they may impact daily life, school, or work.
