What does a first session with you look like?

I am here to help with your needs and goals. The first session will include getting to know each other and developing a plan to meet your needs and reach your goals. If there are areas of trauma I will help guide you with self-care and walk through difficult areas together, one step at a time. Everyone is different and everyone's timeline different, we will go at your pace. Each session will begin with a quick check-in to assess what is working and what needs to be adjusted. From there, this is your session, you will have the opportunity to go in the direction you need. I will check in with you about halfway to ensure we are covering what is important to you and to provide reflection. If you work best with homework or structured goals, that is something we will discuss and explore.

What is your style/approach to therapy?

My primary treatment approaches are Client-Centered, Narrative, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I utilize several different resources, such as websites, literature, worksheets, podcasts, etc. when needed.
