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

Our first session is a conversation, not an interrogation. I’ll ask questions to understand what’s bringing you in, what you’ve tried before, and what you’re hoping might feel different this time. We’ll begin identifying patterns or themes that may be contributing to your current struggles, while also making sure you feel comfortable and understood. You don’t need to prepare anything in advance or have a perfectly articulated goal. The first session is about getting a sense of whether we feel like a good fit and beginning to shape a direction for our work together.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

’m particularly strong at identifying recurring emotional and relational patterns and helping clients make sense of them in real time. My style is engaged, curious, and reflective, grounded in both depth and practicality. While we explore underlying themes, I also pay attention to the everyday elements that sustain you: the music, stories, routines, and moments of connection that remind you who you are. Therapy with me balances insight and integration, helping you not only understand yourself more clearly, but move through your life with greater intention and vitality.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with adults who are open to thoughtful, collaborative exploration of what’s shaping their current struggles. You don’t need to arrive with perfect insight or a clear agenda, just a willingness to be curious about your patterns and how they developed. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship dynamics, or periods of transition, often while appearing steady and capable in other areas of their lives. My style is engaged, direct, and reflective. I value depth, but I’m not overly clinical or rigid. I’m best suited for clients who want a grounded, relational space to understand themselves more clearly and move toward change at a sustainable pace.
