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

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and start building a safe, supportive space for you. We’ll discuss what brought you to therapy, your goals, and any challenges you’re facing. I’ll also explain my approach, answer your questions, and together we’ll start exploring strategies that can help you feel more in control and understood. The first session is mostly about understanding your story and needs—there’s no pressure to share everything at once. Think of it as laying the foundation for a partnership focused on your growth and well-being.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths lie in my ability to build strong, trusting relationships with clients and to tailor evidence-based approaches to their unique needs. I combine empathy with practical strategies, helping clients feel heard while also making measurable progress toward their goals. What stands out about my therapeutic approach is that it is collaborative, flexible, and results-oriented. I integrate proven methods such as cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and solution-focused interventions, adapting them to each client’s situation. This allows me to help clients gain insight, develop coping skills, and achieve sustainable change. In terms of results, clients often report increased self-awareness, improved emotional regulation, and enhanced resilience. Many notice meaningful improvements in their daily functioning and relationships within a few sessions, while also building long-term tools for managing challenges independently.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My ideal clients are individuals who are ready to explore their challenges and take an active role in their growth. My current client focus has been individuals who are struggling with personal and professional work stresses and trying to achieve a better work/life balance and helping couples work through communication and other issues that are barriers to a healthy relationship. I work best with clients who are seeking support with anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem, or coping with emotional overwhelm. I’m particularly well-suited for clients who value a collaborative, practical approach and are open to learning strategies that promote long-term resilience and well-being. Whether your goal is to gain insight, develop coping skills, or create meaningful change in your life, I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space to help you reach it.
