What to Expect

FIRST SESSION

Many people get nervous about starting therapy. This is completely normal. Starting anything new can be scary and anxiety-provoking. I believe that we can build a comforting and trusting relationship as therapist and client. I like to get to know my clients first because it is sometimes difficult to talk about everything in early sessions. Change takes time in any journey. 

CONTINUAL THERAPY

Everyone is different-- some people stay in therapy for a few months, some people stay in therapy for a few years. It is really up to you, your goals, your progress, and your pace of change. Consistent support is key.

MY STYLE

My style of therapy is nonjudgmental, genuine, and empathetic. It is important that you feel understood and validated, and we’ll collaborate on your treatment.

COMFORT LEVEL 

Therapy is tailored to the client's comfort level. The therapeutic relationship is shown to be highly important for success in mental health treatment.
