What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In your first session with me, you can expect a relaxed, calm, and judgment-free environment. As soon as we connect online, I will ensure you feel welcomed and comfortable in this virtual space. Our session will begin with a warm introduction and a brief overview of how the session will proceed. You will have the opportunity to share your story, current challenges, and what you hope to achieve through therapy. I will listen attentively with empathy and without judgment, fostering a safe space for you to express yourself freely. We will discuss your mental health history and explore your immediate concerns, whether they are related to anxiety, depression, or inner child wounds. Together, we will outline your therapy goals and discuss possible approaches tailored to your needs. By the end of the session, my aim is for you to feel heard, understood, and hopeful about our journey ahead.
