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

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and lay the foundation for therapy. We’ll talk about what brought you in, your current concerns, and what you’re hoping to work on. I’ll ask questions about your background, mental health history, relationships, and any major life stressors to better understand your experiences. We’ll also review confidentiality, consent, and how therapy works, and you’ll have space to ask any questions you may have. There’s no pressure to share everything at once—this session moves at your pace. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment and begin developing a plan that fits your needs and goals.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Life Coach at Carmelita’s Couch, specializing in supporting teens navigating anxiety, overthinking, bullying, grief, divorce, and low self-esteem. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, supported, and empowered to express themselves. I also work with adults and couples, offering individual, group, and life coaching sessions focused on healing, growth, and building confidence. My goal is to help each client overcome challenges, gain clarity, and thrive on their unique path.
