What to expect when working with me.

It takes courage to begin this journey, and I want you to know that I’m glad you’re here. Trusting me with your process is not something I take lightly. Together, we’ll focus on what you’re feeling in the present moment, using those emotions as valuable insights into your coping patterns and needs.

Throughout our sessions, you’ll know that I am fully present with you—not just hearing your words, but truly feeling alongside you. Therapy is most effective with regular weekly or bi-weekly sessions, allowing us to build trust, deepen our work, and create lasting change. No matter where you are starting from, I am here to support you every step of the way.
