First session
Our first session together will start with brief introductions, a review of past therapy experiences, and a discussion of your wants and needs from treatment. This will help guide me in creating the perfect plan for you as we navigate the follow-up sessions. We will also explore previous coping skills and what makes you feel safe, allowing me to create a safe space for you as we continue our time together.
Strengths
My authenticity and transparency create a safe space for my clients to express themselves freely and openly. I am a client-centered therapist focusing on empowering and motivating adults and families as they journey through their daily lives.
Ideal clients
I enjoy working with young adults/ adults and couples who are ready and willing to engage in the therapeutic process. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and meaningful progress happens when we are both committed to doing the work together. I strive to create a supportive space where growth, honesty, shared effort, and lasting change can thrive. I strive to guide you through your healing journey
Origin story
I became a therapist because I believe people deserve a safe space where they can feel seen, heard, and understood without judgment. I’ve always been drawn to understanding people’s experiences and helping them make sense of the challenges they face. Therapy allows me to walk alongside clients as they gain insight, build confidence, heal from past experiences, and create a life that feels more aligned with who they are. Witnessing that growth and being part of someone’s journey continues to inspire me in this work.
Ongoing work together
Clients will know they’re making progress when they notice meaningful changes in how they think, feel, and respond to challenges. Progress may look like increased self-awareness, healthier coping skills, improved communication and boundaries, greater confidence, stronger relationships, and feeling more capable of managing emotions and life’s challenges. We will review progress collaboratively throughout therapy based on the client’s goals and their experience of change.
