Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT). I have been providing therapy for 5+ years. As a therapist, I work to create and hold a supportive space for individuals to be seen, felt, and heard. I lead with curiosity, meet clients where they are at, and encourage clients to engage in a reflective process. I believe can tap into our greatest strengths and potential when we take the time to process our thoughts, emotions, and lived experiences.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together we will start with a grounding check-in centered around how you feel about starting therapy. We'll briefly review policies and expectations and I'll share an introduction of who I am. The first session may feel more "question heavy" than typical sessions as I'll be working to gather information about your history and background to understand how I can best serve you. I'll support you with identifying therapy goals by asking you, "How would you be able to tell if therapy was working for you?" I like to let clients know that our first couple of session are focused on rapport building and developing a supportive therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable in the space. You don't have to share everything in the first session or talk about anything you aren't ready to. I believe that the most important things will emerge to the surface in their own perfect timing.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths as a provider are my approaches and values that guide my practice. My therapeutic approach is trauma informed, client centered, collaborative, and present focused. The relational dynamics happening in the therapy room is really important to helping you meet your goals and creating supportive relational dynamics outside of therapy. I'll encourage clients to check in and connect deeper to themselves by turning inwards to what’s happening in their bodies presently in order to release what's not serving them. We may start or end sessions by practicing grounding and relaxation techniques. I consider every individual client an expert in their own unique lives. Everyones healing journey is unique and therapy looks different for everyone, I want to work collaboratively with you to make sure you are getting the most out of your work therapy journey.
