Get to know me

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

First sessions look different for everyone. I love doing some introductions to get to know one another. I provide a space to cover how to contact me, scheduling, paperwork, and other important information. Next, is the big part - we start to get into what led you to seek out therapy. I work to provide a safe space for clients to feel comfortable, accepted, heard, supported, and respected. All are welcome here and you are safe here. Next, we are going to talk about a lot of different topics (symptoms, current issues, past concerns, previous therapy, medical, family, and more). Lastly, we will come up with some goals that will help lead our sessions and the direction we take in your space.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I meet my clients where they are at in their journey. Everyone is unique, different, and therefore have varying needs. Sometimes we might have a conversation that leads to laughing, crying, activities and you might not even realize you're engaging in therapy. I like to incorporate strategies that allow comfort and promote personal growth. I work to foster an environment where we both get to be ourselves. I aim to be reasonably flexible schedule-wise because I understand everyone has different needs and availability.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with clients who are trying to manage stress, time management, transitions, and who are trying to navigate life. I work well with those who experience anxiety, panic, overwhelming stress, and self-esteem/confidence concerns - because let's face it - most of us have been there. I know the struggle can be challenging to nagivate and often people feel alone and scared. I never want you to feel that way. We will work together to find ways to manage this.
