I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you.

It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. I take a person centered approach with each client's needs. Utilizing solution focused interventions, as well as other evidence based practices. Let us make progress together.

First session

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. It is also imperative that you complete your intake forms prior to our first session. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Strengths

Having worked with clients for over 10 years, I am knowledgeable enough to discern that no two clients are the same, so one treatment model does not fit all. I will take a person centered approach and develop a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs.

Ideal clients

I enjoy working with clients that are approaching a new season of their lives and are open to exploring their thoughts, feelings, behaviors. Most importantly, clients that desires to make changes in their lives. I am currently providing individual therapy only.

Terese is exceptional at perfectly balancing warmth with challenging me when needed. She truly listens, dives deep and brings genuine wisdom to our conversations. She asks questions that help uncover insights I'd never reach alone. She'll call me out on patterns or boundary issues but supportively, not judgmentally. Her compassionate yet direct approach has been exactly what I needed for real progress. I look forward to sessions knowing I'll gain new perspectives and feel heard and understood.
