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

Our first session is about creating a comfortable starting point. We’ll take time to get to know each other, start building trust, and see how our connection feels for you. We’ll also talk about what you’re hoping for in therapy—your needs, goals, and what you’d like to get out of our work together—so we can shape a path that feels supportive and meaningful.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My strengths as a therapist come from blending warmth, authenticity, and a willingness to go deep. I create a space where you can be yourself—without judgment or the need to filter—and I balance gentle curiosity with the courage to name patterns when it’s helpful. My approach is flexible and collaborative, drawing from somatic, mindful, and evidence-based methods to meet you where you are. I’m comfortable holding complex stories and experiences, whether you’re working through anxiety, depression, trauma, or something that feels harder to explain. Most importantly, I see therapy as a partnership, where we work together toward the changes and clarity you’re seeking.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with young adults and adults navigating trauma, identity exploration, and the deep fog of depression. My clients are often people who feel a little different—introspective, sensitive, creative, or just tired of masking parts of themselves to get through the day. Maybe you’re holding pain that feels too complex to name, or maybe you’re just ready to feel more like yourself, whatever that means now.
