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

In our first session, clients can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we explore what’s been going on in their life and what brought them to therapy. I’ll ask several questions regarding their history, current struggles, and what they’re hoping to work on all while holding an empathic, authentic stance. The goal is for the client to feel heard, safe, and to get a feel for whether I’m the right fit for them. It’s all about building trust and starting the journey at their pace.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I’d say my greatest strengths as a provider are my ability to create a warm, safe, explorative, and validating space. I also do my best to be emotionally attuned to each client’s emotional experience. I heavily emphasize the utilization of evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method, Motivational Interviewing (MI), and compassion-focused interventions, which helps me tailor practical skills to each person’s unique needs.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I primarily work with adult individuals experiencing self-esteem issues, anxiety, and relationship difficulties. I can also be helpful to adults experiencing anger concerns, life transitions, and stress-related issues.
