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

The intake process typically takes place during the first one to two sessions. Together, we will collaborate on meaningful, attainable goals and practical steps to help you reach them. You will always play an active role in deciding what we focus on, and I will respect your pace throughout the therapeutic process. Therapy can be challenging at times, as it may involve exploring difficult experiences and emotions. However, working through these experiences can create space for healing and a healthier future.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Unfortunately, there can be many different occurrences that can happen in life that may cause us trauma. We can spend days, months, and years trying to suppress or "stuff" those unpleasant memories, experiences, and thoughts. We can try to put them in a box and on a back shelf of our brains... but the body remembers. The good news is, that our trauma can be worked through. It can be processed with the right tools which helps us reduce the intensity of these negative and traumatic thoughts and memories. In addition to being trained in trauma counseling, I am trained in Perinatal Mental Health providing support to those with preconception, pregnancy, perinatal loss, infertility, and postpartum mental health complications for both parents. Motherhood can be an isolating, demanding and challenging period and because it is such a vulnerable period of life, having informed support can be beneficial.
