What's My Approach to Therapy?
Hi there! Meeting someone for the first time can feel intimidating, especially when that meeting involves being open and vulnerable. I want you to know that I’m truly glad you’re here, and I recognize the courage it takes to reach out for support. This is a meaningful step, and one I do not take lightly.
My approach to therapy focuses on creating a space that feels safe, respectful, and free from judgment or discrimination. I work to nurture and empower you while also offering thoughtful guidance and gentle challenge when helpful. Together, we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on what matters most in your life. Many clients find that after the first session, therapy feels less intimidating and more like a space where they can feel heard, supported, and understood.
I work with individuals seeking greater self-awareness, emotional balance, and practical tools to navigate life’s challenges. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in meeting you where you are. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy — curiosity and a willingness to show up are enough.
When we begin working together, we’ll focus first on helping you feel comfortable and supported. As trust builds, we can gently explore deeper experiences or patterns that may be affecting you, always at a pace that feels manageable. Over time, our work shifts toward making sense of your experiences and supporting growth, healing, and meaningful change. Throughout the process, you remain in control, and we take each step together.
