Get To Know Me
How do you determine therapy goals with clients? What does that process look like?
I like to start by helping the client identify real life goals that doesnt have to be therapy related. Thinking of overall goals help to then begin thinking of habits we may want to change, the person we desire to become, and things we want to heal from through therapy. I will then begin picking your brain to help you come up with goals that are challenging, yet realistic.
What was your path to becoming a therapist? What inspired you to choose this profession?
In my college career, I began my own therapy journey as I was hurt, broken, and lost in many areas of my life. Through my therapy journey and the help of an amazing therapist, I was able to become more confident, more self-aware, and was able to begin healing. This experience gave me the inspiration and insight necessary to start the journey to becoming the therapist I aim to be.
What does a first session with you look like?
In our first session, I will talk your head off helping you to understand each step of the process we will take, asking you a billion questions (please forgive me lol) in order to understand the problem and help me to formulate a treatment plan and an outline of what activities we will do, what we will work through in therapy and the blueprint of how we will accomplish your goals. Then I will give you the floor to share anything that you want to share about why you are pursuing therapy and also be able to ask me any questions you may want. I will spend a little time getting to know you and allowing you to know me and feel comfortable in the therapy room. We will talk about goals, strengths, current stressors, family history, and background to figure out the plan for moving forward. In our first session together I will not ask you to share anything you are not comfortable talking about or are not ready to discuss. Think of our first session as an introductory call and assesment.
