First session

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We’ll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy. Together, we establish agreements to ensure that your therapeutic environment feels safe, healing, and mutually respectful. It is normal to feel nervous or anxious about your first appointment. No need to worry, I’m here to guide you through each step of the process.

Strengths

My communication style is warm, empowering, and direct. I use empathy and active listening to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient.

Ideal clients

Together, we’ll identify and set personal goals like improving relationships, building self-esteem, or reframing anxious thoughts. Throughout your journey, some goals may evolve as you gain new insights. We can adapt our plan at any time to ensure it works for you. I’m here to provide you with the support and tools you need to continue to move closer to where you want to be, even when things feel challenging.
