Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is designed to help us get to know each other and establish a trusting, collaborative relationship. I’ll ask you some questions to better understand what brought you to therapy, your current challenges, and any goals or hopes you have for the process. We’ll also review essential aspects of confidentiality and discuss any previous experiences you've had with therapy. This is a space where you can move at your own pace—there’s no pressure to share everything right away. I want to ensure you feel safe, heard, and supported as we begin this journey together. By the end of the session, we will outline some next steps and explore how we can tailor our work to meet your unique needs.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

What stands out about my approach is the way I blend evidence-based methods with a compassionate, culturally responsive lens to create a personalized path for each client. I focus not only on symptom relief, but also on helping you gain a deeper insight into the patterns and experiences that shape your life. Clients often share that they feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered in our work together. They appreciate that I bring both clinical expertise and a calm, grounded presence to each session. Over time, many experience greater emotional clarity, improved coping skills, stronger boundaries, and a renewed sense of purpose.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I specialize in working with clients experiencing life transitions. Many of the individuals I support are high-functioning professionals or caregivers who appear to be managing well on the outside yet feel emotionally depleted or disconnected within. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), CBT for insomnia (CBT-I), and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients develop self-awareness, regulate their emotions, and establish healthier patterns of thinking and behavior. My therapeutic style is collaborative, supportive, and culturally responsive, centered on creating a safe space where you can heal, grow, and thrive.
