FAQs

I once worked with a client who struggled greatly with toxic relationships, as well as issues surrounding self-esteem and self-worth. Through our sessions, we actively processed these feelings and she was able to uncover specific events and traumas in her past that we then worked through together. Over time, she was able to feel more emotionally safe and balanced, and ultimately she was able to enter into a healthy relationship in which she and her partner thrived.

Clients can expect a comfortable pace where each session builds upon the previous one. I understand that healing takes

time, and it is never a linear process. My sessions allow each client to go at their own pace, speaking on topics only that

they are comfortable with. My process is patient, supportive, and always encouraging.

In my first session with clients, I gather the necessary background so that I can have a better understanding of who they are, as well as their needs and goals. In this session we establish the pace and expectations for the therapeutic journey, and I provide insight into my general style and methods. I often like to provide a useful coping tool or tips for relaxation training right away, so that my clients can begin feeling better even by taking a small step forward.

As someone who understands the difficulties of the healing journey, I am passionate about sharing techniques and perspectives with my clients so that they can feel supported on their own individual path. I believe that no one should have to walk the path alone, and that sometimes just being seen or heard can be immensely comforting in itself. As a therapist, I strive to provide understanding and compassion to each of my clients, in hopes that they may offer this to themselves as well.

I feel that my biggest strength is my empathy. I strive to make each client feel comfortable and supported, without the fear of being judged.
