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

In our first session, my priority is helping you feel comfortable, supported, and understood. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, your current concerns, and what you’re hoping to gain from the process. I’ll take time to get to know you, explain how I work, and answer any questions you may have. There’s no pressure to share everything at once. We’ll move at a pace that feels safe and manageable for you. By the end of the session, we’ll begin identifying next steps and a treatment plan tailored to your needs, so you leave feeling clearer, grounded, and supported.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is my ability to create a safe, grounded, and trusting environment where clients feel comfortable exploring difficult experiences. I am especially skilled in using EMDR to help clients process unresolved trauma and reduce the emotional intensity connected to past experiences. I balance depth-oriented trauma work with practical, present-focused support, helping clients build emotional regulation skills while also addressing the root of their distress. Clients often appreciate my calm, collaborative approach and my ability to meet them where they are while gently supporting meaningful, lasting change.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with young and middle-aged adults who are feeling emotionally overwhelmed, stuck, or impacted by past experiences. Many of my clients are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life transitions and are seeking more than short-term coping strategies. My ideal clients are open to self-reflection and want to better understand how their experiences have shaped them. Whether you’re new to therapy or returning after past attempts, I offer a supportive space to process emotions, build resilience, and engage in approaches such as EMDR to support healing and personal growth.
