Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and talk about what’s going on in your life. I’ll listen closely to your concerns, and we’ll discuss your goals for therapy. This is all about creating a comfortable space where you can be open, ask questions, and start to feel confident in the process. By the end of the session, we’ll have a plan for how we can move forward together.

Virtual & in-personMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to work alongside you in tackling the challenges you face. Together, we’ll identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. By using practical tools like cognitive restructuring and mindfulness, we’ll create real strategies you can use every day. My goal is to help you feel more in control, building the skills to manage life’s ups and downs with confidence and resilience.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
I focus on providing therapy that respects and values your unique cultural background. My goal is to create an inclusive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and appreciated for who you are.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help you build stronger emotional connections and work through relationship struggles. In a safe, understanding space, we’ll dive into the feelings and needs that shape your relationships, helping you make sense of them and find healing.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I bring mindfulness into our work together to help you stay grounded in the present moment and build more self-compassion along the way.
Motivational Interviewing
I use Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help you work through any mixed feelings about change. By listening closely and asking questions that get you thinking, we’ll figure out what truly matters to you and how to move forward.
