In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session we will get to know each other and see if we will be a good fit. Therapy isn't a one size fits all.

I am very direct in my approach. I don't shy away from having difficult conversations and pointing out maladaptive behaviors. My job is to help you gain new perspective and make positive changes in your life. I am trained in CBT, ACT, EMDR, DBT, IFS, emotionally focused couples therapy and attachment based family therapy. I pull from models depending on your unique needs.
