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

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if this is your first time. There’s no pressure to have the “right” words or a clear plan when you show up. You can come exactly as you are. Our first session is about getting to know each other and beginning to explore what brought you here. We’ll talk about your goals, what feels most urgent, and what you hope therapy can help with. Just as important, we’ll pay attention to whether this feels like a good fit. Therapy works best when you feel safe, heard, and understood — and that starts from day one.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I take a holistic approach to therapy, recognizing that emotional health doesn’t exist in isolation. Together, we may explore how physical well-being (sleep, nutrition, movement), spiritual fitness (whether faith-based, secular, or values-driven), and community or support systems impact your mental and emotional health. I believe sustainable change happens when we look at the whole picture — not just symptoms. My work is grounded, practical, and collaborative, with a focus on helping you build a life that actually supports your healing, not one that constantly pulls against it.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with people who are sick and tired of being sick and tired. My ideal clients aren’t necessarily confident or clear; they’re willing. Willing to be honest. Willing to look at patterns that aren’t working. Willing to redefine who they are and how they want to live. If you’re ready to stop surviving on autopilot and start intentionally shaping your path forward, we’ll do meaningful work together.
