Get to know me

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

The first session is a good to know you session and assessments will be completed. You will provide information about yourself and your goals for therapy and at the end of the session we will determine the frequency of the sessions as well as the best times that work for both of us

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I meet clients where they are and allow the client to take the lead in their pursuit of their goals. I am a caring, compassionate, and understanding therapist who understands that recovery is not linear.

The clients range from adolescence to senior adult adults who struggle with managing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, family, dysfunction, and eating disorders.
