Get to know me

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

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I want to make that first session as comfortable and clear as possible. In our initial meeting, we'll spend time getting to know each other. I'll ask about what brought you in, what challenges you're facing, and what you hope to gain from therapy. There's no pressure to share everything at once. We'll move at a pace that feels right for you. We'll also talk through any questions you have about the therapy process, set some goals together, and start to build a working relationship based on trust and collaboration. My goal is for you to leave that first session feeling heard, supported, and a little more helpful about the path ahead.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is my ability to meet clients where they are, with warmth, patience, and practical support. Clients often tell me they feel genuinely seen and understood in our work together. I bring a grounded, compassionate presence that helps people feel safe enough to explore difficult emotions and strong enough to start making meaningful change.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I'm best positioned to support clients who are ready to better understand their emotions, improve their relationships, and develop healthier ways of coping. Whether you're a parent concerned about your child's behavior, a teen feeling overwhelmed by stress or self-doubt, or an adult navigating loss or big life transitions, I offer a compassionate and practical approach to therapy. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered to move forward.
