What is your style/approach to therapy?

I strive to create a safe and supportive space where you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings without judgment. I use psychodynamic therapy to help you understand how your past experiences are affecting you now. You will recognize unhelpful patterns and develop healthier ways to take care of yourself and connect with others. I also incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to give you practical skills to manage worries and difficult emotions. This integrated therapy approach gives you the insight to understand your patterns and the practical tools to create meaningful, long-lasting change in your life.

What does success look like in therapy? How will a client know that they are making progress?

Success in therapy can look like: - Feeling happier, calmer, and more content. - Becoming more resilient and better at coping with life’s challenges. - Creating a more meaningful and balanced life based on who you are and what you want.

What does a first session with you look like?

We will talk about your story, the challenges you are having, and your goals for therapy and your life. If we both feel that I am the right therapist for you, we will create a plan to help you feel better quickly and achieve your long-term goals.
