In our first session, we’ll start by addressing any basic questions you may have. We’ll review any signed paperwork and discuss confidentiality to ensure you feel comfortable and informed. During this initial meeting, I’ll gather some standard information about your life, so I may need to interrupt you more than usual. In future sessions, we’ll have more space for free-flowing conversation. By the end of our first meeting, I aim to have a clear understanding of your goals and will present the strategies I believe will be most helpful for you. It’s completely normal for more thoughts and feelings to arise after our first session, and we may begin our next meeting by discussing anything that came up for you.
My greatest strengths as a therapy provider are rooted in compassion and a deep ability to understand your unique experience. I focus on identifying your strengths and finding ways to capitalize on them, empowering you to move forward with confidence. I gently guide change, offering feedback when a strategy may not be working and adjusting as needed. I believe in providing encouragement and a sense of understanding throughout the process, creating a safe and supportive environment for growth. Above all, I bring patience to our work, knowing that change takes time and that every step, no matter how small, is progress.

They might feel spiritually lost or uncertain, seeking clarity in their worldview or recovering from religious trauma. With an open mind and a willingness to experiment, they’re ready to explore these deeper questions and embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and meaningful change.
Negative thinking patterns can be overall discouraging. Learning to talk to yourself in a more accurate and encouraging way can improve both mood and productivity.
Identifying personal values can help you to act in alignment with what is most important to you. Both aging and tragedy can force us to re-prioritize where it is most meaningful to spend time our limited and energy.
Our bodies store the information that our subconscious processes. Learning to listen to your intuition takes practice. Implementing mindfulness into your daily life is a way to be more intentional and less reactive. It also allows you to utilize both rational and emotional data in decision making.
