What does a first session with you look like?

After our first session, you can expect to feel understood and validated in your experience. You can also expect to feel some hesitancy because the work of change is hard and sometimes the challenge can be scary. But, I believe after each session you will either learn more about yourself or more about how you present to other people in your life.

What is your style/approach to therapy?

In therapy, I like to integrate different methods and theories depending on what may be useful. I focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy because I truly believe that everything is interconnected and when we are conscious of our thoughts and emotions and behaviors we can have a better outcome. I also focus on mindfulness, spirituality, solution-focused therapy, and identifying patterns in behavior.
